Guidelines for Multi-Use Trail Design American Assoc. of State Highway and Transportation Officers (AASHTO) Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD) Other resources (Page 2)

Trail Types Urban trails & pathways Rails-trails Trails in greenways Interpretive trails Historic trails Rural trials Primitive trails FIND AN EXAMPLE OF EACH!

Rail-to-Trails Railbanking - method by which railroad lines proposed for abandonment can be preserved through interim conversion to trail use Rails-to-Trails Conservancy http://www.railstrails.org Benefits

Trail Design Issues Location and use Trail width (min. for 2-directional trails is 10 feet with 12-14 feet preferred) Bicycle sidepaths Trail?roadway intersection design Restricting motor vehicle access Pavement design

Lanana Creek Trail Where start and end? How wide? How frequently is it used?
