The city of Fort Collins is updating its Strategic Trails Plan (paved paths) for the first time since 2013, and the Park Planning & Development department would like to hear from you. There are currently four ways you can get involved and stay informed:

  • Attend a public meeting. The first one is on April 15th.
  • Fill out the survey.
  • Add points to the interactive map.
  • Sign up for the newsletter.

“The Strategic Trails Plan (STP) will provide a framework for the future planning, design, maintenance, and preservation of the City’s recreational paved trail system. Throughout the planning process, numerous opportunities for input will be provided as we envision an expanding trail system that provides enhanced recreational opportunities, while easily connecting you to places you want to go.”
