The map displays key areas that were noted as potential trail improvements or new trail links in the first phase of the Recreational Trail Master Plan (RTMP) development, including comments heard in Round 1 engagement, trail links proposed in previous plans, and a preliminary site visit. The map DOES NOT represent a comprehensive trail network or the extent of what is being considered as part of this RTMP. Rather, it shows potential parts of the network we are currently reviewing in the process of developing the trail network. In no way does a link being identified on this map commit the Town to pursuing the link/improvement as part of the final network, nor does it preclude any further links from being added to the network.
