Question 23. "In an expansion plan for the trail network, where would you like to see additional developments happen? (Choose all that apply)" Do *NOT* check “Along streets with setbacks” Sidepaths are DANGEROUS!! they are merely wide sidewalks.and are not engineered to accommodate 2-way traffic, especially with many driveways & entrances. Each one is really an "intersection" and intersections are where most accidents occur.
