The meeting is from 5:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. (EST).

Project maps and exhibits will be on display. CRTPA representatives and project team members will be available to explain proposed improvements, answer questions, and receive comments.

The CRTPA has conducted an Environmental Impact and Alternatives Study (EIAS) for a paved multi-use trail. The proposed trail would extend along Old Bainbridge Road from the Leon County line to Orchard Pond Road, and along Orchard Pond Road from Old Bainbridge Road to the eastern trailhead of Orchard Pond Parkway in Leon County. The total study length is approximately 4.4 miles. The existing unimproved trail, approximately 3.6 miles, is located between the western and eastern trailheads and accommodates equestrian, pedestrian, and bicycle user groups. The project will improve pedestrian and bicycle safety, increase mobility and recreational opportunities, enhance quality of life, and maintain usability for equestrians, pedestrians, and bicycle users between the trailheads. Additionally, it provides a critical link in expanding the regional trail network in the Capital Region and beyond. The EIAS will identify and assess impacts on the social, economic, cultural, natural, and physical environment.
