How Dunedin's cart zone actually works
Dunedin runs a zone-based system rather than a simple street list. Carts are allowed inside the designated zones on roads posted 35 mph or under with no more than two lanes of traffic in each direction, and the city has progressively added approved crossings over the county and state roads that would otherwise cut the zones apart. That is what connects the residential neighbourhoods to downtown.
There are firm exclusions. Carts are not permitted on sidewalks, in city parks, or on the Fred Marquis Pinellas Trail β the 45-mile rail trail that runs straight through downtown. The Trail is for bikes and pedestrians; ride the street that parallels it instead. Anything driven between sunset and sunrise needs headlights, brake lights, turn signals and a windshield, which our carts have as standard.
