New Emergency Trail Markers Installed on Pearland Trails

Have you used Mary’s Creek Trail or Clear Creek Trail recently?

Thousands of people use the City’s hike and bike trails every year and the City of Pearland wants walkers, runners and bikers to enjoy a safe, fun and relaxing experience. To meet this goal, the City installed new emergency trail markers this spring along both the Mary’s Creek Trail and the Clear Creek Trail. The green and yellow pear-shaped markers can be used in the event of an emergency to help identify the location of trail users and allow first responders to reach people faster. The numbers on the trail markers correspond with geographic coordinates and access points. They also provide details for the best type of equipment suited to access the area. If you experience an emergency while using the trail system, call 911 and provide the dispatcher the number located on the closest trail marker. Our first responders will get to you as soon as possible.
