Mason County Multi-Use Trail Seeking Input

Mason County, Michigan, has recently revived their county-wide trail plan. Priorities would be to connect Ludington State Park with downtown, downtown to Consumers Pumped Storage property, then on to Pentwater, and finally from Ludington to Scottville. This concept has been broken into these four segments.

The first section likely to be completed combines part of “Segment 1” (Ludington State Park to Downtown Ludington) with a section of “Segment 2” (Downtown Ludington to Mason County Campground), making a fundable section that connects two recreation assets (parks) and largely follows existing US Bike Routes. There are features to this segment that could be attractive to granting agencies.

Norm Cox of Greenway Collaborative has created a survey to solicit the community’s input on this first trail section. Feedback from this survey can help with grant writing in the fall to support funding of this initial section.

This all-ages-and-abilities route will enhance US Bicycle Routes 35 and 20. Please take a look at the Draft Plan for more details and then complete a brief Survey to share your thoughts and help shape the final plan.
