What is a BMX Facility?
A BMX facility is a bicycle motorcross course that provides artificially developed earth structures to be used by bicycle riders. BMX became popular in the early 1970’s by imitating motorcycle motorcross racing facilities.
Design There are no national standards for constructing a facility. Some design recommendations are:
1. Users should be included in the design process
2. The ideal location for a facility is in an existing or new park with access to restrooms, drinking fountains and shade trees
3. It should not be located in a residential area due to traffic, noise etc.
Injuries and liability Injury and liability potential certainly exist for a city with a BMX facility. These potential liability exposures for cities include injuries to users, spectators and bystanders due to:
• Negligent design • Negligent maintenance • Negligent supervision
• Failure to warn of dangerous conditions
What are the options for a municipal government? Local governments have several options for providing a BMX facility including:
1. The city can build a facility and operate it as part of its parks and recreation department.
2. The city owns the facility and an association operates it.
3. The city owns the facility and an association leases the property and operates it.
4. A nonprofit association owns and operates the facility on private property.
For the last three options, participants can create a nonprofit association to build and maintain the facility. By leasing (or selling) land to the group to construct and run a facility, the city would be able to transfer liability risk to the association. The contract between the city and the association should contain proper hold harmless/indemnification language and requirements for the group to have proper insurance.
