The Collier to Polk Regional Trail Master Plan will define the initial vision for a connected multi-use trail through Collier, Hendry, Glades, Highlands, Hardee, and Polk counties.
The Master Plan will evaluate the possibilities for the trail through:
- Analysis of existing conditions in the study area
- Review of current trail planning and programming
- Identification of communities, destinations and attractions that the trail could connect
- Engaging the public and stakeholders for input
Based upon this information, High-Level Concepts will be defined for where the trail could be located.
The Master Plan will include useful guidelines, provide an Action Plan with implementation recommendations for a clear path forward, and set the stage for future project development.
- Evaluate Possibilities
- Define Concepts and Alternatives
- Position for Success
- Deliver Comprehensive Master Plan
Provide Visual Story to Illustrate the Possibilities
Define Recommendations for Clear Path Forward
Set Stage for Future Project Development
