The problem is the signs would have to be close enough to form a physical barrier and be read from all directions . at all speeds. and various levels of attention.
The policing of the non participant crowd is impossible because the access is so unrestricted it is a accident waiting to happen.
The El Mirage Recreation Area has the highest death rate of any BLM controlled area in the country.
That is not just on race day either.
The popularity of the event sells a lot of shirts bur the attendant problems create a monster that SCTA has a real difficult time to handle.
The attention span of the non participants is so short that many of the injuries happen when they hit each other.
The lower water table due to the surrounding growth has also contributed to the reduction in suitability for our use.
The elected board is aware of all those problems and they are working towards a resolve.
Stay tuned.
