Minneapolis: Turtle Crossing Sign at Cedar Lake Trail

Turtle X-Crossing sign at Cedar Lake in Minneapolis
A temporary "Turtle X-ing" sign is placed along the Cedar Lake Trail in Minneapolis, a paved path managed by the Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board. The sign serves as a visual reminder for cyclists and pedestrians to be aware of turtles migrating between nearby lakes and wetlands to lay eggs. These seasonal signs are part of the city's efforts to protect urban wildlife, particularly during spring and summer when turtles are most active in areas like the Chain of Lakes and Minnehaha Creek trail systems.
