Trail Advocacy:

No matter how much America loves them, a lot of political struggles are involved in the rails-to-trails movement. Laws govern abandoned rail lines for trail use, but these laws shouldn't be taken for granted. Trails need support from neighbors, public servants and local civic and business leaders. Laws also fund trail projects, foster public support, build political will and protect abandoned corridors. Make sure your trail gets built. Learn the options here.
