Officials link rise in safety issues at Eleanor Tinsley Park to illegal scooter vendors

From the sky, Eleanor Tinsley Park looks like a postcard — a peaceful green space nestled against Houston’s skyline, where families come to picnic and joggers loop along the trails. But on the ground, signs of trouble are starting to surface. KPRC 2 visited the park this week and found broken glass from car windows scattered near the trails, trash overflowing from bins, and reports of trucks setting up shop late into the night. According to park officials, many of those trucks belong to unpermitted scooter vendors operating after hours.
