Trail use keeps climbing — 115,000 users this summer alone. The north expansion has construction funding from 2022 but is stuck in federal environmental review, with construction still years away.

County Trail Projects and Infrastructure Updates

The county is restructuring its trails grant program for 2026 by reducing the total grant pool from $100,000 to $80,000 to free up money for a countywide trails master plan. Officials also added a 25% local match requirement so towns have financial skin in the game and finish projects faster.
