DescriptionThis New Jersey Trails Plan revises and enhances the 1996 Trails plan and presents a vision for trails to benefit all trail advocates, users, managers and planners. The planning approach included an examination of trails planning and trends that influence trails development and use in New Jersey. An active Plan Advisory Committee (PAC) representing trail user groups and public and private trails organizations provided guidance. The planning process included interviews with key stakeholders and extensive public outreach, with focus groups, public information centers, vision workshops, county surveys, state park superintendent surveys, trail user surveys and on-site (trail head) intercept surveys. Based on the needs, desires, topics and issues that were raised during the planning process, this Plan establishes a Vision for trails in New Jersey, proposes Goals for fulfilling the Vision, recommends actions and activities to achieve the Goals, and assigns roles and responsibilities for implementing those actions.
NotePurpose: To present a plan for New Jersey's Trails
