This feature class contains informal pedestrian shortcuts identified via the Pedestrian Shortcut Map. The Pedestrian Shortcut map is an effort to understand what informal pedestrian connections exist in Montgomery County. Called “people’s choice paths,” “desire lines,” “goat paths,” “pedestrian shortcuts” and other names, these connections may look like trodden grass, dirt or gravel but are important paths for pedestrians looking to make direct trips in Montgomery County where sidewalks or trails don’t go. Many people use these connections on a daily basis to run errands, get to work or school, connect to transit and exercise. |

<DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;"><DIV><DIV><P><SPAN>Pedestrian shortcuts are important for pedestrians across Montgomery County, but they may not be accessible for people with mobility concerns, during or after rainfall, or at night. This map will help improve communities by highlighting connections that are important for pedestrian travel that aren’t officially sanctioned or formalized.</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>The Pedestrian Master Plan team will then consider this information when making recommendations to improve the quality and safety of these connections. This will make walking and rolling safer, more comfortable, more convenient and more accessible for pedestrians of all ages and abilities in all parts of the county.</SPAN></P></DIV></DIV></DIV> |
