Pathways

Multi-use pathways provide the opportunity for people to take part in a low cost activity. You can use them to get from A to B or for recreation. They are free for all to use and open 24-7. A few trails are lit and some are not. Pathways accommodate different forms of active transportation, such as:

  • walking
  • jogging
  • cycling
  • strollers
  • skateboarding
  • roller blading
  • wheelchairs
  • other wheeled and non-wheeled modes of human powered transportation.
