That would prevent many mobility challenged people from enjoying the beauty of Pilot Butte

Wondering why walkers are consistently trying to keep drivers out of public areas. If you feel the butte is to dangerous to share with cars then go walk somewhere else. Walkers aren't special people with special rights. You already destroyed all people's from using Shevlin Park to enjoy.

No, this is a state park that should be accessible to everyone to be able to enjoy this Bend jewel.

This would discriminate against a large number of people who are not able to make such a difficult hike.

Well, while I'm not incapable of walking or hiking, I certainly know people who cannot make such a strenuous trek, and it would be wrong not to allow everyone to enjoy that view!

That restricts the butte for able bodies only. We like to take our 90 year old mom up there occasionally.

What about the handy capped It's always been open to motor vehicles .that would be like asking hikers and bikers to stop using. Why should it close just because it has gotten more popular maybe they should hike or bike where vehicles don't travel

It will never happen. It's an accessibility issue. State Government will never close it to vehicles.

Alot of people besides the handicapped are unable to walk up to the top. People with asthma and other medical conditions don't always qualify for a handicap sticker. This comment is really exclusive to one category of people, leaving out senior citizens and many others.
In order for it to be accessible, only vehicles with disabled stickers should be allowed up. Make all the spots up top disabled-only. Everyone else can walk or ride up. It would be much safer without vehicles speeding up and down.
