Jul 6, 2012 | by Active Trans

The Cook County Forest Preserve District has one of the largest networks of bike and pedestrian trails in the country. There are more than 200 miles of multi-use trails, including the newest trail in Riverdale. 

/The Forest Preserve District of Cook County recently launched a process to create a Recreation Master Plan, and they want your input.

The Recreation Master Plan will provide the District with a blueprint for how to enhance existing recreation opportunities and identify new ones. 

A series of focus groups open to the public will begin on July 17, 2012. Get the schedule here. You'll be pleased to know that the Active Transportation Alliance is participating in the steering committee for the overall project.
