What are the safety rules at Walk MS?
The Walk MS route is not closed to traffic and all city and state laws must be obeyed at all times. Walkers are instructed to stay on the sidewalks and listen to law enforcement and official route marshals during the event. Walkers under the age of 12 must be accompanied by an adult at all times. Wearing headphones and using cellular phones while walking is prohibited; please “pull over” if you need to use a cellphone. The use of headphones limits your ability to hear critical safety notifications, as well as traffic, other pedestrians and participants around you. To ensure the safety of all Walk MS participants, roller skates/blades and bicycles are not permitted.
