South Suburban has been working on the Mary Carter Greenway Study to identify ways to improve safety, comfort and capacity along the trail. Community members were invited to share input on the trail, and are now invited to share feedback on proposed project ideas.
54 potential projects, spread across the entire trail, have been identified, evaluated, and prioritized. Please review the project ideas in this survey and identify your highest priority projects in each of the five trail sections. Thanks for taking the time to complete this survey!
