#Greenways are magic.
Greenway trails connect people– and whole communities– to 🌳 #nature, opportunity, wellness and adventure 🚵.
How are greenways planned, funded and maintained? How can we make them 🏃 safe, accessible and much more common, especially for people who struggle with isolation?
Join Parks & Trails New York at the first statewide Greenway Advocacy Summit to:
* CONNECT with other greenway champions and get inspired by compelling case studies of pioneering projects that are returning major health, economic and climate benefits
* ADVOCATE for new legislation to fund greenways and improve access, safety
* PLAN future connectors, spurs and trunk lines, including new utility corridors and other novel rights-of-way
Who else is coming? Advocates, planners, engineers, designers, leaders, champions; public health professionals plus representatives from local businesses and economic development teams leveraging the power of greenways to invigorate #local economies.
If you can’t make it, go ahead and register your interest anyway, so you can plug into this growing movement to win local, regional and statewide networks:
