 Have you been waiting for a rail trail or a coastal trail in Santa Cruz County? Would you like to walk or bicycle on a path separated from car traffic? I'm Corey Coletti, senior transportation planner for the Santa Cruz County Regional Transportation Commission. And I'm here to let you know that planning for such a trail network is now underway and that you can help. The broad project, the Monterey Bay Sanctuary Scenic Trail includes plans for a rail trail adjacent to the operational rail line, a coastal trail and spur trails connecting primary alignments to neighborhoods, schools, commercial centers and other key destinations. The Monterey Bay Sanctuary Scenic Trail will be a bicycle and pedestrian network that will span the Santa Cruz County coastline and allow residents and visitors the opportunity to enjoy the iconic coastal environment of the Monterey Bay Marine Sanctuary. It will provide a safe and convenient way to walk and bike to your favorite destinations along the coast on a well connected, easy to navigate network. Join us on December 13th, 14th or 15th from 6 to 8 p.m. in Davenport, Live Oak and Watsonville location. You'll be able to view maps of preliminarily identified alignments along the Santa Cruz Coastal Corridor and you'll be able to share your ideas about where the trail should go and how it can best serve different populations like joggers, wheelchair users, bicycle commuters, the elderly and parents with strollers. See our website at www.scrtc.org for more information about the project scope and for meeting locations.
