Just saw this on the Wash Cycle:

January 2009 Arlington BAC Notes

1. Trail Maintenance Issues - Conditions on the Custis Trail Switchback at Lyons Village was discussed. Temporary warning signs have been put up and permanent signs ordered. The County has ground the thermoplastic center line off the switchback in an attempt minimize the slipperiness of the trail.

Winter clearing of the trails - Kevin Stalica (County Parks) said that the County concentrates on clearing routes to schools, libraries, Metro, etc. This would receive first priority with respect to snow and ice removal.

Bollards - Kevin Stalica says he is in a tough situation since the BAC generally doesn't like bollards, but neighborhoods want the bollards to prevent motorized vehicles on the trails and in Parklands.
