Skateboarding is generally allowed on Mesa sidewalks and streets, but is banned in downtown plazas, parking garages, and on private property without permission. Mesa offers public skateparks at Red Mountain and Pioneer Park for dedicated trick riding.
Mesa allows skateboarding, longboarding, and non-motorized scooters as legal modes of travel under city traffic rules. Riders must yield to pedestrians on sidewalks and obey traffic signals when on streets. Skateboarding is prohibited in downtown public plazas, transit centers, parking structures, and on benches, planters, or rails where damage occurs. Mesa Code Title 9 also bans riding on private commercial property where signs prohibit it. Public skateparks at Red Mountain Park, Pioneer Park, and Skyline Skate Park provide legal venues for tricks and ramps. Helmets are recommended for all ages.
Skateboarding in prohibited downtown plazas, damaging public property, riding on signed private commercial property, or impeding traffic can result in trespass warnings, equipment confiscation, and Title 9 misdemeanor citations.
