North KC-area counties begin ambitious trails plan
Submitted by Brent Hugh on Sun, 12/08/2002 - 10:18pm
Clay and Platte county residents have spoken quite clearly about trails over the past two years: They want to build miles of new pathways and greenways where they can walk, bike, skate and ride horses. . . .
A recent survey showed how strongly Clay Countians support these initiatives. Hiking and biking trails were the most highly rated of 28 recreational facilities for families. Trails finished far ahead of the next two highest priorities -- small neighborhood parks and indoor fitness facilities.
Read the complete story, including details of proposed trail networks, on the Kansas City Star web site.
