Hey INWers,

Planning is being done on a mega-greenway spanning the east coast. 
Called the East Coast Greenway, it aims to provide a bike and 
walker-friendly path from Maine to Florida.

Part of this trail will be going through Raleigh by way of Falls Lake 
and alongside the Neuse River. It will enter town at the north by way of 
the CSX railroad tracks, which is also the proposed Southeast High Speed 
Rail Corridor.

NCDOT is holding a series of meetings in areas along the track to gather 
input on the proposed trail. Most of these meetings are in towns north 
of Wake County but one is being held in Wake Forest. The meetings are to 
gather input as to which side of the rail corridor would be best for the 
trail, among other things.

If you'd like to attend and find out more, the meetings take place at 
the following dates, times, and locations:

May 7, 2009     6:30pm          Warren County
