On the Greenbelt

Can you bring a claim if you were hurt on the Greenbelt in Garden City?

Often, yes. The Greenbelt is a shared path for walkers, runners and cyclists along the Boise River. When one person is careless, another can be badly hurt.

A claim may be against a cyclist, a driver at a path crossing or whoever looks after the path. A path run by a city or county can come with a shorter deadline for giving notice, often 180 days.

Idaho lets cyclists treat a stop sign as a yield sign. Drivers who forget this can cause crashes where paths and streets meet.

If you were hurt on the Greenbelt, write down exactly where it happened and who was there, then call us early.
