Overview

Align Southern Indiana leads a collaborative effort to create a “Comprehensive Regional Integrated Trails Master Plan” which will identify and prioritize for future development an integrated trails and parks system that will connect the five-county region. The trail will be planned and designed through partnerships with Clark, Floyd, Harrison, Scott and Washington Counties, as well as other local organizations. The project is expected to take approximately 18 months for completion; and will provide an all-inclusive, connecting trail system for walking, biking and other activities. The region will be connected by world-class trails, bikeways, greenways, and walkways, linking people to the nature, history, and communities of Southern Indiana. The area will promote active, healthy outdoor lifestyles, while vibrant, connected communities will benefit from sustainable, alternative transportation and recreation opportunities. A regional trail system will encourage economic development, attract and retain a talented workforce, stimulate growth by increasing tourism and visitation, and increase property values, strengthening Southern Indiana as a safe, welcoming place to live, work and play.
