CONTENTS 011921 HCBOC Page 105 HARNETTCOUNTY FAYETTEVILLE RALEIGH BACKGROUND and PURPOSE The plan focuses on bicycle, pedestrian, and greenway routes and trails, set- ting the stage for implementation of a County-wide multi-use trail system. These trails will link parks, schools, municipalities, cultural points of interest, and residential areas within Harnett County, and will be designed to connect to surrounding counties. The goal is to develop a community-supported plan that can be successfully implemented through a capital improvement plan as well as through programmatic strategies and operations. VISION Greenways in Harnett County will boost tourism, economic development, and quality of life by connecting residents and visitors to downtown shops and restaurants, the Cape Fear River, Raven Rock State Park, the East Coast Greenway, conservation lands, county parks, and existing trail systems in neighboring counties. In addition to tourism benefits, greenways will also provide close-to-home opportunities for health, wellness, access to nature, transportation, and recreation for local residents. CONTEXT MAP The study area encompasses all of Harnett County, featuring several trail corridors that have been identified in past and recent planning efforts, as shown here. 1CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION 4 | CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION 011921 HCBOC Page 106 Cape Fear River Trail Park in Harnett County.

The 5-mile trail of crushed stone is perfect for the casual walker, biker or family and is also used by serious runners because of its length and flat, well maintained surface. Dogs on leashes are welcome, but horses and ATVs are not permitted. At multiple points on the path, there are informative signs with a map as well as historical points of interest and attractions along the trail. • East Coast Greenway : A multi-state trail system running from Maine to Florida that is approximately 33% complete. Designated sections in Harnett include the Dunn-Erwin Rail Trail and a connector to the Cape Fear River Trail Park. • Triangle Trails Initiative: A newly launched collaboration between government, business, an- chor institutions and civic leaders to make the Research Triangle Region a national leader in greenways and trails. Triangle Trails will work on behalf of the region to promote the exten- sive regional greenway system. The Triangle Trails Initiative region includes 14 Triangle area counties (including Harnett County). ¥95 £¤421 £¤301£¤401 Angier Broadway Dunn BensonLillington Erwin Coats I0510 MILES ¥95 £¤421 £¤301£¤401 Angier Broadway Dunn BensonLillington Erwin Coats Bicycle Level of Service Easy - All Easy - Adult Moderate Advanced Not Recommended Not Allowed Existing Shared Use Path Proposed Shared Use Path Existing Bike Route East Coast Greenway Upcoming road improvements Rural, scenic, and/or lower-traffic routes Existing Shared Lane Markings Future alignment along the Cape Fear River for the East Coast Greenway between the Cape Fear River Trail Park in Erwin to the Cape Fear River Trail in Fayetteville Greenway opportunity to improve bicycle circulation in and near Dunn, complementing the Dunn-Erwin Rail Trail (Dunn Bicycle Plan) Proposed Sidepath/ Rail Trail along NC 55 Buies Creek Greenway connections to Wake County (and the Wake County Greenway System Plan, as well as other separate bicycle, pedestrian and greenway plans in Fuquay- Varina, Holly Springs, Apex, and Raleigh) Chapel Church Rd via the Town of Linden is a key bicycling connection to Cumberland County (Sandhills Regional Bike Plan) Fort Bragg Anderson Park Raven Rock State Park Carvers Creek State Park Future road improvements should incorporate best practices in complete street design The All American Trail is proposed to extend around the entire Fort Bragg boundary Rural, scenic, lower traffic volume roads could be enhanced to provide safer bicycle travel between Raven Rock State Park and Carvers Creek State Park (from the Sandhills Regional Bike Plan).Lillington to Raven Rock Rail-Trail (from the Sandhills Regional Bike Plan and the Lillington Pedestrian Plan) Dunn-Erwin Rail-Trail NC 5 Cape Fear Run State Bike Route Proposed Campbell University Pollinator Meadows & River Park Existing connector from downtown Erwin to the Cape Fear River Trail Park Neills Creek Cape Fear River Cape Fear River to Lee County Connection to Johnston County & East Coast Greenway EXISTING RESOURCES AND EXISTING PLANS MAP Avents Creek to American Tobacco Trail (ATT) (recommended in the CAMPO SW Area Study) 6 | CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION 011921 HCBOC Page 108 ¥95 £¤421 £¤301£¤401 Angier Broadway Dunn BensonLillington Erwin Coats I0510 MILES ¥95 £¤421 £¤301£¤401 Angier Broadway Dunn BensonLillington Erwin Coats Bicycle Level of Service Easy - All Easy - Adult Moderate Advanced Not Recommended Not Allowed Existing Shared Use Path Proposed Shared Use Path Existing Bike Route East Coast Greenway Upcoming road improvements Rural, scenic, and/or lower-traffic routes Existing Shared Lane Markings • Raven Rock State Park Trails: 26 miles of a variety of easy-to-moderate moun- tain biking, hiking, and bridle trails. • Harnett County Parks: Parks and recreation facilities offering a variety of recreation opportunities: • Neill’s Creek County Park: 25 acres adjacent to Harnett Central High School; No designated trails. • Barbecue Creek County Park: 0.5 miles of walking trails (walking the outer loop of concrete walking trail around the park is 1/3 mile in length) • South Harnett Park: 8 acres; no designated trails. • Anderson Creek County Park: 1,014 acres between Nursery Rd and Powell Farm Rd including hiking trails; When completed, will also include bicycle and equestrian trails. • Cape Fear River Trail Park: 16 acres of walking trails, overlooks, canoe access, and picnic shelter with restrooms; recently designated as part of the East Coast Greenway. • Boone Trail Community Center and Library: Features many programmed activities and a gravel-screened walking trail. • Cape Fear Shiner County Park: Phase one includes 3.25 miles of trails. • Patriots Park at Ponderosa: Will include both paved trails and natural surface trails. • North Carolina Bicycle Route 5 (Cape Fear Run): This 160-mile route roughly parallels the course of the Cape Fear River through the southeast coastal plain. Rolling hills give way to flat land in the swamps and Carolina bays. NC 5 begins at its connection with Salem St (Old US 1) in Apex, continuing through Holly Springs, Fuquay-Varina and Harnett County, passing near Fayetteville, and end- ing in Wilmington at its intersection with the NC 3 route. RESOURCES in SURROUNDING AREAS This plan also aims to connect to regional bicycle, pedestrian, and trail resources, such as those listed below. • All American Trail: An unpaved pathway for hikers, runners and bicyclists along the southern boundary of Fort Bragg. The trail will eventually circumnavigate the entire boundary of Fort Bragg (approximately 70 miles in length). There is opportunity for Harnett County to connect a trail or bicycle route south to the future northern boundary extension of the All American Trail. • Cape Fear River Trail (CRFT): A 5.3-mile paved path for walkers, joggers, bicyclists and others utilizing non-motorized transportation. Just under three miles of the Cape Fear Mountain Bike Trail is now accessible off of the Cape Fear River. There is opportunity for Harnett County to connect southeast along the Cape Fear River, eventually connecting to the northern end of the CRFT. • American Tobacco Trail (ATT): A 22-mile rail-to-trail that crosses through the City of Durham; Durham, Chatham, and Wake counties; the planning jurisdictions of the Towns of Cary and Apex; and passes through the Jordan Lake project land of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. There is an opportunity for Harnett County to connect north to Wake County, and subsequently to the southern end of the ATT. CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION | 7011921 HCBOC Page 109 EXISTING PLANS PAST PLANS WITH BICYCLE, PEDESTRIAN, AND GREENWAY RECOMMENDATIONS IN HARNETT COUNTY The following existing plans were taken into consideration when weighing opportunities and constraints for county wide bicycle, pedestrian and greenway connections. Existing Plan Relevant Findings and Recommendations Grow Harnett County Comprehensive Growth Plan (2015) This plan was spurred by the population increase that the county experienced in recent decades. It addresses growth strategies related to land use, utilities, natural resources, transportation, and economic development. The plan recognizes the need to develop a county-wide greenway system, providing multi-modal transportation options and both active and passive recreation opportunities. Harnett County Comprehensive Parks, Recreation, Greenway, and Blueways Master Plan (2017) This plan outlines greenway and blueway connections with county wide strategies to enhance the effectiveness of recreational services to the growing population of Harnett County. The plan also addresses provisions for additional river access points along the Cape Fear and Upper Little Rivers. Harnett County Comprehensive Transportation Plan (2011 and 2017 addendum) This plan makes long range planning recommendations based on current and future traffic behavior. In addition to motorized traffic, the plan identifies projects to enhance the mobility options for walking and bicycling. These enhancements include facilities such as bike lanes, sidewalks, and multi use paths. Northwest Harnett Small Area Plan (2019) This plan recommends multi-use paths connecting Lillington, Raven Rock State Park, Chatham County, Wake County, Angier, and Campbell University in Buies Creek. The plan also makes recommendations for the acquisition and development of recreation access points along the Cape Fear River for blueway use. Capital Area Metropolitan Planning Organization (CAMPO) South West Area Study Update (2019) This study was initiated by CAMPO in cooperation with NCDOT to address the regional transportation needs and demands associated with the growth of southwestern Wake County and northern Harnett County. It features three proposed "low-stress" multiuse trail corridors in Harnett County, including 1) Wake County to Raven Rock State Park (Avents Creek corridor), 2) along the Cape Fear River from Raven Rock State Park to Lillington and then north to Angier, and 3) Fuquay Varina to Angier, mainly along Rawls Church Rd. 8 | CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION 011921 HCBOC Page 110 Resource Relevant Findings and Recommendations Sandhills Regional Bicycle Plan (2019) This plan promotes comprehensive bicycle infrastructure throughout the region, including Harnett County. The plan addresses the multifaceted benefits of expanded bicycling infrastructure including economic growth, environmental protection, livability, and health. The plan identifies the potential connection between Raven Rock State Park and Downtown Lillington, as well as the connection to Campbell University from Lillington via a shared-use path. The plan also included a Bicycle Tourism Map for Harnett County, identifying a bicycle level of service for roads throughout the county. This map can be used to identify recommended routes for longer-distance recreational riding on existing roadways. NCDOT Complete Streets Policy Update and Implementation Guide (2019) Complete Streets is North Carolina’s approach to interdependent, multi- modal transportation networks that safely accommodate access and travel for all users. This policy requires NCDOT planners and designers consider and incorporate multimodal facilities in the design and improvement of all appropriate transportation projects in North Carolina. Regarding cost share, the policy states that, "Bicycle and pedestrian and public transportation facilities that appear in a state, regional or locally adopted transportation plan will be included as part of the proposed roadway project. NCDOT will fully fund the cost of designing, acquiring right of way, and constructing the identified facilities." The full policy, including exceptions to the policy, can be found here: https://connect.ncdot.gov/projects/ Project-Management/Documents/CS%20Policy%20Update%20Memo%20 Secretary%208.28.19.pdf Lillington Pedestrian Plan (2020) This plan, developed by the Town of Lillington and NCDOT, makes recommendations for bicycle and pedestrian facilities and programs in Lillington. Lillington currently has 6.35 miles of existing sidewalks. This plan looks at how those can be improved through access, infrastructure updates, and extension so that residents and visitors can better utilize them. The plan features proposed routing for trail connections through Downtown, including connections over the Cape Fear River to the Harnett County Government Complex, and westward toward the proposed Raven Rock connection outlined in other plans listed above. Campbell University Pollinator Meadows & River Park (2020) There is active, ongoing interest and support from Campbell University to establish a series of pollinator meadows, hiking trails, electric vehicle paths (for golf carts), camping areas, and a vehicle access network (for EMS and mobility- impaired individuals) on the University's 325-acre abandoned 'back-nine' golf course at Keith Hills on the Cape Fear River. The project would be supported by a 2,500-plant nursery (under development) at Little River Eco Farm in Erwin. The Great Trails State Plan (2020) The Great Trails State Plan is being developed by NCDOT to identify a proposed network of shared-use paths connecting to every county in North Carolina. A key focus of the plan is to connect to state parks. The Lillington to Raven Rock connection could be a key component of the Great Trails State Plan within NCDOT Division 6, along with planned future connections for the East Coast Greenway Corridor heading north and south from the eastern side of Harnett County. Other regional Transportation Plans and Municipal Plans Plans from neighboring regions (like the Wake County Greenway Plan and the City of Fayetteville Bicycle Plan) and recommendations from other local plans (like the City of Dunn Bicycle Plan and the Lillington Comprehensive Transportation Plan) were also reviewed for potential connections. CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION | 9011921 HCBOC Page 111 KEY CONSIDERATIONS THE PROJECT STEERING COMMITTEE The plan was guided by a Steering Committee representing a range of perspectives, and draws upon a large group of stakeholders for input throughout the process, including, but not limited to: • Representatives from Harnett County Parks and Recreation, Planning Services, County Manager’s Office, GIS, Community Relations, Health Department, School District, Economic Development, Planning Board, Parks and Rec Advisory Committee, and Board of Commissioners. • Representatives from Angier, Coats, Dunn, Erwin, and Lillington • The North Carolina Department of Transportation • Regional planning agencies (CAMPO, FAMPO, and Mid Carolina RPO) • Campbell University and Carolina Central Community College • NC State Parks/Raven Rock State Park • The East Coast Greenway Alliance • Dunn Area Tourism Authority • Harnett Health Foundation • The Conservation Fund of North Carolina • Local trail advocates, business leaders, and developers Existing Parks and Trails Existing Plans and Programs Committee and Public Input This plan will combine and take into account these main inputs to develop recommendations for the countywide bicycle, pedestrian, and greenway system. Photo sources: Raven Rock State Park Facebook page, Dunn-Erwin Rail Trail Facebook page, and Alta Planning + Design. ++ 10 | CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION 011921 HCBOC Page 112 The Steering Committee members shared their perspectives, concerns, and ideas on the overall project, organized into the following key considerations: CREATING CONNECTIVITY • This plan should connect the County’s municipalities, parks, public lands, and schools, providing links for transportation as well as recreation. • Raven Rock State Park should be a key connection. Overcrowding has been a huge concern in 2020, with increased visitation since the COVID-19 pandemic began. A connector trail from Lillington could help spread bicyclists and pedestrians out of the park, and could provide a potential economic impact for Lillington from park and users. • A trail south of the Cape Fear River through Raven Rock and continuing west could connect to the Deep River Endor trail which is planned to connect to downtown Sanford. • The Cape Fear River needs to be highlighted in this plan, as a huge asset for Harnett County. Highlight access and trail connectivity options along the river to the extent possible. Clayton Riverwalk is a nearby river trail example. • Same with the Upper Little River, where access for two locations is underway; access to the Cape Fear may be more difficult to acquire. • More canoe in campsites along the river would benefit the county. • Water and sewer lines should be explored for trail development, creating ‘fingers of connectivity’ to and through municipalities. • Future trail connections were identified in the Capital Area MPO’s Southwest Area Study, between northern Harnett County and southern Wake County, potentially connecting to the American Tobacco Trail. • Utilize rivers, creeks, and abandoned rail beds where possible. The White Oak Greenway is a good example of a well-designed suburban greenway along a riparian corridor. Lower elevation "wetland" areas will likely require elevated decking. • Consider connections to bicycle and pedestrian projects that have been previously submitted through NCDOT’s project prioritization process as well (SPOT). • Consider future connections to southwestern Harnett County and the All-American Trail, which is an existing unpaved shared use path along the southern and western border of Fort Bragg. If the All American Trail continued all the way around the base it would be a huge opportunity for connectivity to southwestern Harnett County neighborhoods. CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION | 11011921 HCBOC Page 113 PARTNERSHIP OPPORTUNITIES Development Community: • Where possible, weave greenways into future development and connect to the greater trail system and adjacent destinations. • The northern part of Harnett County has experienced a significant amount of new development. These developers have been seeing high demand for walking trails and nature trails and want to connect to part of a larger trail system. For example, in the Serenity development in northwestern Harnett County, trails are currently being designed and integrated into the layout. Conservation & Education Community: • Work with conservation organizations such as the Conservation Fund, Triangle Land Conservancy, and Three Rivers Land Trust. Protect environmentally sensitive lands where possible. Provide private landowner incentives and partner with local landowners to donate or purchase trail easements and conservation easements. • Campbell University is a potential partner with their plan for Pollinator Meadows and River Park, which includes hiking trails between the university and the Cape Fear River. • Organizations such as Sustainable Sandhills that support sustainable transportation in addition to broader focus areas (land use, engergy, water, waste, and design) are important to engage and partner with when opportunities arise. The East Coast Greenway (ECG): • The ECG is a multi-state trail system running from Maine to Florida. The greenway is under development with approximately 33% complete. • The ECG connects through eastern Harnett County with recently designated sections along the Dunn-Erwin Rail Trail and the connector to the Cape Fear River Trail Park. • A feasibility study is needed to examine alignment options from the Cape Fear River Trail Park south to Fayetteville; the same is needed for connecting north of Dunn toward Smithfield. These sections could be accomplished through regional partnerships with neighboring counties and municipalities. The Dunn-Erwin Rail Trail is officially designated as part of the East Coast Greenway.

Photo source: Dunn-Erwin Trail Facebook page. RAIL-TRAIL OPPORTUNITIES • Many rail-trail conversions in the U.S. utilize the railbanking process (including the Dunn-Erwin Rail Trail in Harnett County, which was federally railbanked in the early 2000’s): https://www.railstotrails.org/build-trails/ trail-building-toolbox/acquisition/railbanking/ • The section of the Norfolk Southern rail line from Fuquay-Varina through the northwest corner of Harnett County (NS branch that connects into Chatham County) is currently listed as ‘inactive’. Outreach to Norfolk Southern and Fuquay-Varina should be conducted to explore this rail-with- trail or rail-to-trail opportunity. • Rail-with-trail opportunities (trails within active railroad corridor right-of- way) are less common, but are sometimes viable as long as the railroad owner is amenable to trail. There are few examples in NC, but one of them is just south of Harnett County, along the Cape Fear River Trail. The Cape Fear River Trail utilizes the right-of-way of an active class 1 Norfolk Southern line, and required a large effort by City of Fayetteville to implement. • There is opportunity for part of the Lillington to Raven Rock State Park trail could be made along the former "Becker spur" railroad corridor, where the County acquired the railroad easement. • There is less opportunity in the abandoned rail corridor from Angier and Coats to the Dunn-Erwin Rail Trail (along NC 55), since most of the former corridor has reverted to adjacent property owners. • The abandoned rail corridor along NC 87 and NC 24 in southwestern Harnett County could be explored for future trail opportunities. • Rails to Trails Conservancy’s “America’s Rails-with-Trails” resource book is a helpful resource for these types of projects (created in 2013, with an update to be released in 2021): https://www.railstotrails.org/resource-library/ resources/americas-rails-with-trails/ TRAIL TYPES, TRAIL USERS, and GETTING SHOVEL-READY • Consider a diversity of trail types and users, including equestrians where possible. A good example is the trail system around Johnson Park in Raleigh, which has an assortment of paved and unpaved trails. • Plan for both recreation and transportation purposes, taking advantage of the natural amenities in Harnett County (Cape Fear River, parks, etc.) while enabling large segments of the population to reach them safely from population centers. • Get this plan in place, narrow down top priorities, and focus on getting them shovel ready. CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION | 13011921 HCBOC Page 115 PUBLIC INPUT PUBLIC FEEDBACK HIGHLIGHTS FROM RECENT PLANS The public input results below highlight some of the feedback collected during past planning processes. Lillington Pedestrian Plan survey (2019/2020): Residents were surveyed on ways to improve the walking and bicycling environment in Lillington. The Sandhills Regional Bicycle Plan survey (2017/2018): 440+ respondents from the Sandhills Region, including Harnett County. Respondents overwhelmingly indicated the top priority for the town is building multi-use paths or greenways, especially those that connect to destinations such as Raven Rock State Park, Campbell University, and along the riverfront. The top three destinations that are most important to connect with bikeways are: 1. Parks within cities and towns 2. Trails or greenways 3. State parks and natural areas 77% of respondents said that green- ways and separated bike lanes would encourage them to bike more often. 14 | CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION 011921 HCBOC Page 116 2020 PUBLIC SURVEY RESULTS AND WEBINARS The public input results below are from this plan's public survey, which ran through Summer 2020, with more than 850 respondents. Two virtual workshops were also held in October 2020 with a total of over 50 participants. Very Important Somewhat important Not Important Harnett County Parks (Anderson Creek Park, Neill’s Creek Park, Barbecue Creek Park, etc) I just want trails for exercise/recreation and am not concerned about destinations Cape Fear River Raven Rock State Park Downtown businesses and destinations in Angier, Coats, Dunn, Erwin, and Lillington Public Schools, Libraries, Recreation Centers, and Community Centers Regional Connections (American Tobacco Trail, All-American Trail, etc.) Dunn-Erwin Trail/East Coast Greenway Campbell University and/or Central Carolina Community College I do not want trails to any of these destinations CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION | 15011921 HCBOC Page 117 Raven Rock State Park to Lillington Lillington to Campbell University and Coats SW Harnett County On-Road Bicycle Route (to Fort Bragg, Anderson Creek Park, and Barbecue Creek Park) Angier to Coats NW Harnett County to Raven Rock State Park (Hector Creek) Coats to Dunn/Erwin Results are organized by the highest ranked to lowest ranked (based on weighted average). *Note that the Barbecue to Spout Springs project (p. 68) is also a high priority, but was added after the public survey, as many respondents asked for additional greenways in SW Harnett County. 16 | CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION 011921 HCBOC Page 118 I think the important thing is to get one or two trails established quickly. They don't need to be fancy at first, as time goes on upgrades can be made as more money becomes available. Don't think we need to have a trail completely finished before it's opened to the public. Things like water fountains, benches or restrooms can be added later. This would be great for our county. The positive economic impact of making areas more accessible for walking and cycling is enormous. Countless areas across this country have already seen that to be the case and their populations have seen improvement in standard of living. I grew up in Dunn and one of the best things that happened was the creation of a few trails there. My mother was able to get out and walk safely in the town even in her 70s. My hope is that all communities, especially those rural ones, understand the importance of trails for a variety of reasons. EXAMPLE QUOTES FROM THE 2020 PUBLIC SURVEY Very excited for Harnett County to complete the greenway master plan and start to construct new trails. I would like to see this done all across the county ... not just one area. See the full table of all 100+ open-ended comments and ideas submitted by the public on the follow- ing pages. Recreation/Fitness Access to Nature/Outdoors Economic Development/ Quality of Life Habitat and Environmental Protection/Awareness Transportation/ Connectivity to Destinations CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION | 17011921 HCBOC Page 119 Are there other specific locations within Harnett County (and its municipalities) that you believe would be ideal for new greenway trails? Please be as specific as possible. 1 There has been talk of a mountain bike trail at Anderson Creek park but I have not seen anything actually happen with that. Anything that would extend the East Coast greenway would be amazing. 2 Something in the Anderson Creek area. 3 In the Anderson Creek area near Ray Road and 210. In the open and not isolated. Where people can feel safe. 4 trail from highland to western harnett schools would be great, if practical. 5 The Highland Elementary/Middle school and WHHS District area. 6 Johnsonville area proposed Patriot Park to Anderson Creek Park or Fort Bragg. 7 There’s got to be more options for walking trails in the southern and western parts of the county! 8 Carolina Lakes 9 Behind Sprout Springs church 10 Carolina Lakes 11 Would appreciate something near Buffalo Lakes Rd. Specifically joining Carolina Lakes Subdivision. 12 Carolina lakes community must be included! We are a community of 2,000 homes 13 Carolina lakes 14 Carolina Lakes 15 Buffalo Lake area 16 Western Harnett would be a great place to add more trails. Would be highly used by the large military community in the area. 17 Overhills Rd from Elliott Bridge Rd to Ray Rd 18 Carolina lakes area that is always forgotten about 19 Maybe one to a new High School in the SW side of the county? 20 Absolutely near carolina lakes please 21 Benhaven, Highland, Buffalo Lakes area 22 Spout Springs area, from Buffalo lakes road towards Cameron/Spring Lake. Carolina Lakes community is a beautiful area for Greenway Trails, that would be use constantly. 23 Carolina lakes in western harnett 24 From neighborhoods to schools (ie along Alpine Dr and Buffalo Lake Rd to Highland Schools, along 27 to Western Harnett Schools, etc) 25 Carolina Lakes areas to other outside trails and bike paths 26 The Carolina Lakes area 27 Near Cameron/ Sanford 28 Carolina Seasons on Ponderosa Trail, Cameron, NC 29 Cameron, Carolina Lakes 30 There's a huge parcel of land right across from Highland Middle and highland elementary. Eight by buffalo lake too. So it would be very nice. 31 Buffalo Lake Road & Hwy 24/27 32 Near Anderson Creek area or 87 ARE THERE OTHER SPECIFIC LOCATIONS WITHIN HARNETT COUNTY (AND ITS MUNICIPALITIES) THAT YOU BELIEVE WOULD BE IDEAL FOR NEW GREENWAY TRAILS? PLEASE BE AS SPECIFIC AS POSSIBLE. Responses to this question clearly displayed a desire to add a proposed greenway in the southwestern part of Harnett County. These are generally grouped by area of the county in which the comment references. 18 | CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION 011921 HCBOC Page 120 Are there other specific locations within Harnett County (and its municipalities) that you believe would be ideal for new greenway trails? Please be as specific as possible. (continued) 33 Between Anderson Creek and Barbeque Creek 34 Carolina Lakes to Raven Rock 35 Buffalo lakes Rd 36 Housing communities on buffalo lakes road in southwest harnett county 37 SW Harnett 38 Harnett co industrial park By benhaven school area 39 All the schoolers that are far from any city attending schools such as Highland and Benhaven could benefit highly from this trail. 40 western harnett. We have space just need something on this side due to the expansion of the communities 41 I would love to see a park or trail in the spout springs (carolina lakes) area we really don’t have anything close by. 42 The south west corner 43 Buffalo lake Road 44 Down 87 from Cameron to fort bragg 45 Carolina lakes/Cameron down to spring lake/fort bragg. It would allow many members to bike to work, reducing the numbers of cars on 87 daily 46 Southwest Harnett County for a hiking biking path to Bragg. 47 Please put something in southern Harnett County, we don't have any parks. 48 Patriots Park 49 Highland elementary 50 Buffalo lake road 51 Buffalo Lake Road. There are several subdivisions and a few shopping areas and schools, but you can't safely walk to any of them. 52 Spout springs buffalo lakes area 53 Spout Springs 54 Buffalo Lake Rd. would be a perfect space 55 The area around Buffalo Lake Rd. There are soooo many neighborhoods that could be connected by sidewalks/trails that could also lead to the Highland schools. 56 Barbecue Church/Buffalo Lake Road Area/Highway 87 area. We have nothing here especially with the highly concentrated population 57 Buffalo Lake Rd between HWY 87 and HWY 24 58 buffalo lake road. 59 See above, Western Harnett county. Alpine/ Tingen to Buffalo lake. Specifically to Highland elementary and middle. I’d also love to see a park near by as well. 60 Western Harnett area 61 South western Harnett County could use some love! We don't have any parks right near us and we have to go about 15-20 minutes to anderson creek park to hike. Thanks for doing this, it's an awesome idea! 62 Alpine Rd. Buffalo Lake Rd to Tingen. Buffalo Lake Food Lion to Highland Schools. 63 Around Highland Elementary School to Crestview Subdivision. 64 Carolina lakes road area. 65 No priorities listed in #3 for western harnett? Buffalo lake rd. Areas from anderson creek to overhills 66 Far western Harnett County. I feel as though Harnett County never considers the far west area and Johnsonville area! 67 Highway 87 near the new shopping centers and Linden Oaks, the YMCA and other amenities in this area. There are a lot of people who also walk along side the highway and could use this greenway to safely travel to work. This area has been building at a rapid pace but infrastructure is lacking. The military has brought a lot of people to this area and I believe that they are deserving of this. 68 HWY 87-24, to cavers creek area. All. We live in a sub division and across the subdivision is a small shopping plaza with eating and dance classes for kids yet we can’t safely cross the street. Their is no pedestrian crossing. Or sidewalks to go in any directions out of Northridge plantation or other neighboring subdivision. 69 Spring Lake or Sanford CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION | 19011921 HCBOC Page 121 Are there other specific locations within Harnett County (and its municipalities) that you believe would be ideal for new greenway trails? Please be as specific as possible. (continued) 70 Don’t forget Western Harnett- to Lillington 71 Western Harnett County please 72 Western Harnett County!!! 73 Anderson Creek Park connected to Lemuel Black then Lemuel Back connected to nursery road and also out to 210. Then one could make a huge loop from anywhere on these roads. Always see lots of people running/walking trails at Anderson Creek but just not enough mileage so we run out onto the road to get more distance. Scary traffic at times. 74 A connection from Anderson Creek Park to Fort Bragg area to other trails (Raven Rock, trails in Spring Lake, Lillington, up to NC State/ Raleigh) 75 Anderson Creek area to Lillington 76 Near Overhills/Buffalo Lakes Road, 87 Linden Oaks 77 By the new YMCA area 78 Cameron/Near YMCA 79 Spout Springs area 80 Trails close to the Linden Oaks, Richmond Park and Lexington Plantation communities would be great. It would provide places to run, walk and ride bikes. There are areas like that now in the area. 81 87, buffalo lakes rd, 24/27 There are a lot of military around this area that love outdoor activities. 82 The Anderson Creek area- closer to Ray Rd - new sidewalks are nice but it would be nice to also have a more centrally located and lit place to exercise. 83 The side of Nursery road leading to Anderson Creek Park. Coming from Forest Oaks and Woodshire, there is a nice spot for a trail running along Nursery. 84 In the woodline going from Buffalo Lake Road area to Fort Bragg. A join operation between Bragg and Harnett to increase Physical Training areas and foot traffic to local businesses. 85 Alpine and tingen road and buffalo lake road 86 The nursery area has no sidewalks or parks that are really accessible. This would really improve the enjoyment of the area and less people causing problems trying to ride on the roads 87 Connections between schools on the west side would be neat (at least for middle/high school. I’d love to be able to go between Western Harnett, Highland, and Overhills. 88 Continue to develop Anderson Creek Park. 89 Anderson Creek Park to barbecue creek park 90 Along Hwy 27 to Dollar General at Hwy 24 and along Ponderosa to Patriot Park 91 Spout Springs to Raven Rock corridor 92 Historic Barbecue Presbyterrian Church to Cameron Hill Presbyterrian Church (Historic) to Overhills. 93 Literally anything in Western Harnett 94 Carolina Lakes neighborhood to and around schools 95 Fort Bragg near the Walmart to spring lake/Fayetteville 96 Somewhere on 87 97 OLD HISTORIC RAILROAD BED THE TRAVELS HWY 87 OR MAYBE THE OLD SOUTH PLANK ROAD TO CAMERON 98 Yes. Use the old rail line from Fv to Moncure or southern Wake , connect to the ATT.this area is exploding and land will be gone it it is not bought soon. 99 Connecting the proposed Sanford greenway with a Harnett county loop. 100 The new potential Patriot park 101 parallel to NC 87 or NC 27 102 A trail to extend further west to service the communities around HWY 87 that has seen substantial growth in the past several years. 103 Between Overhills Creek Subdivsion, Country Squire and Overhills Elementary. 104 Anderson creek park area to accommodate Carolina lakes and Anderson creek residents 20 | CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION 011921 HCBOC Page 122 Are there other specific locations within Harnett County (and its municipalities) that you believe would be ideal for new greenway trails? Please be as specific as possible. (continued) 105 I live by Buffalo Lakes Road, and I wish that area had...sidewalks at least. Something to make the area runnable. The school kids want to walk and run there but it’s just plain dangerous. There’s nothing in that area that is safe for exercising. 106 A connection between Spout Springs and Anderson Creek that could tie into the SW Harnett County trails proposed. 107 Ray Road Nursery Road NC 270 Overhills Road 108 Spout Springs, Carolina Lakes, Linden Oaks to Pope/Fort Bragg. 109 A trail to the new YMCA 110 Western part of the county/ Barbecue, Spout Springs area 111 At the end of Caldwell st on Overhills creek there is an area that may work but it connects with a neighborhood. Maybe close the side of the neighborhood and open a new entrance 112 Carolina lakes/ buffalo lakes 113 Buffalo lake road 114 Buffalo Lakes Road, 24/27, 87 115 The Johnsonville area. 116 Western Harnett, Johnsonville, over to Buffalo Lake Rd. to Barbecue Creek, to Anderson Creek and from Barbecue Creek over to Raven Rock then over to Lillington. 117 Cameron Carolina lakes area 118 Buffalo lake road to Anderson creek park or barbecue creek park 119 Don’t know specific locations available, but would love more biking and walking trails in Western Harnett County. 120 I live in the Carolina Lakes community off of Buffalo Lake road. Because of the military, lots of residents filter through and are always asking where to find the nearest biking, hiking, and walking trails. I think if a greenway were here, it would’ve heavily trafficked. 121 Can we get something out here in Western Harnett? 122 Ray Road to Fort Bragg 123 Buffalo Lake Road area to Highland Schools to Barbecue Creek Park. A lot of people utilize Buffalo Lake Road for running. A greenway Trail would make this activity a lot safer for citizens in this area. 124 I am also from Europe where we walk a lot more than we are able to in the standard suburban neighborhoods of Harnett County. Many of my fellow friends and country people have shared they would like more opportunities to walk to places around common and more populated areas such as the Buffalo Lake area. 125 Spout Springs area in Western Harnett 126 WESTERN HARNETT! CAMERON/SPOUT SPRINGS 127 Some waterways in western Harnett that would be good to have accessible for recreation. 128 Spring lake 129 It would be nice to have something in the western part of the county - Cameron/Sanford/Broadway/Spring Lake area. These areas often seem disconnected from the rest of the county. 130 yes I have thought for years that the old rail line running from Swan Station, Olivia, Pineview, Johnsonville then Linden Oaks. The railroad bed is there and there is history along the way 131 Sanford Cameron carthage 132 To Sanford 133 Cameron, by the foodlion and Walmart on 87 134 Cameron area 135 It would be great to connect Angier to Lillington. Not sure how that would be possible or where would be appropriate for a greenway trail, but it would be great to connect the two towns especially with Angier having Jack Marley park, 136 Erwin to Lillington, Lillington to Harnett Central 137 If not greenways, sidewalks to Harnett central schools down neils creek rd. 138 Angier to Lillington Lillington to Fuquay Varina 139 Angier to Raven Rock and Angier to Fuquay-Varina, connecting to Wake County Greenways 140 Lillington to Bunnlevel CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION | 21011921 HCBOC Page 123 Are there other specific locations within Harnett County (and its municipalities) that you believe would be ideal for new greenway trails? Please be as specific as possible. (continued) 141 Bunnlevel 142 A collaborations with neighboring counties to try and connect some of the already local existing trail. 143 Wake county to harnett county 144 Old Benhaven school & Boone Trail school areas. 145 Old Boone Trail Elementary School site 146 Boone Trail region 147 Carolina lakes/ buffalo lakes 148 Wake (holly springs-Fuquay) 149 More in the Boone Trail area please. 150 The Boone Trail Community Center has land perfect for new bike trails, please use it! 151 A trail could be placed along the rails which run along 401 from Lillington to Fuquay. 152 North Harnett county along 401 from lillington to Fuquay 153 It would be nice to have something near Ballard Woods subdivision off of Ballard Road that goes East toward Harnett Central High School and 210 and/or goes West toward Hector Creek and Raven Rock Park 154 Any off 401 near lillington and going to fuquay 155 Angier to Lillington, which gives people all along Hwy 210 access. 156 Trails near Jack Marley Park or northern Harnett 157 I believe Angier has a great need for this with Jack Marley park to connect to the downtown area and library 158 Lillington to Angier, or buies creek, coats, or any variation of all 159 Lillington to Angier 160 Along 401 from Lillington to Fuquay 161 A link from Angier through to the American tobacco trail 162 Fuquay area of Harnett County. A creek trail would be wonderful. 163 North harnett to south wake 164 DT Angier to DT Lillington 165 Lillington to Angier in order to enjoy parks, businesses and festivals there without having to go all the way to costs first 166 Would love a River trail from the park in Erwin to Lillington on either side of the river. 167 Cape Fear River 168 Anywhere along the river, it nice to view wildlife and hear the water on greenway in Raleigh and Mt. Airy. 169 Access to enjoy the River should be a priority. 170 Anywhere along the Cape Fear and definitely a Greenway safely connecting Harnett County to Fort Bragg. 171 down the river would be great 172 Cape fear 173 I think the areas along the Cape Fear can be developed for walk/run/bike paths. 174 Erwin/Cape Fear River 175 Along the Cape Fear River 176 Greenway beside cape fear river! 177 Cape Fear River trail from Lillington to Erwin 178 A connection from Anderson creek park to cape fear river trail would be nice too. 179 Erwin to Averysboro Battlefield. 180 A potential connector from Averasboro Battlefield to Bentonville Battlefield, which is along the Mountains to Sea Trail. 181 Along the river from Lillington to Erwin. 182 Lillington to Erwin along the Cape Fear River 22 | CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION 011921 HCBOC Page 124 Are there other specific locations within Harnett County (and its municipalities) that you believe would be ideal for new greenway trails? Please be as specific as possible. (continued) 183 Cape Fear River (Similar to Neuse River Trail) with connections to other trails in the future. 184 Anywhere on the cape fear river 185 A route along the Cape Fear, simliar to the Neuse River Greenway, would be super. 186 River trails would be great 187 A greenway along the Cape Fear River near downtown Lillington. 188 Greenway along cape fear river that eventually connects to American tobacco trail, and links with Cape Fear river trail by Methodist. 189 If right-of-way could be established, a hiking/mountain bike trail along the Cape Fear would be fantastic. You could have a pretty nice adventure race (paddle, run, bike) similar to the Captain Thurmond's Challenge in Fayetteville, West Virginia with such a setup. 190 I think it would be ideal if you can build paths that walk along right next to the cape fear river 191 Kipling to Lillington to Angier 192 The old rail bed between Angier and the north. There is tremendous growth north of Angier and the old rail bed where the tracks have been pulled up would be ideal for connecting our northern town neighbors to downtown Angier. This trail could also be connected in Angier to the the trail from Angier to Coats. 193 Lillington/NW Harnett to Angier is the only other connections I could see. 194 I would like to have a greenway trail from the beginning of Mcdougald Road to Lillington. This area of the county appears to not be represented well in the proposed Plan. 195 Angier to Lillington trail 196 Pathway along 210 from Angier to Lillington shopping. 197 fuquay to lillington along the existing sewer lines which are cleared and graded ready for improvement for ped/bike/equestrian travel . 198 Somewhere near Angier. 199 Harnett Central High school area 200 Adjacent to Old Stage Rd 201 Why nothing between Angier and lillington 202 Angier to FV Angier to Buies Creek A connection to the Co's NW area park (oakridge river rd) connection/ access to the parks & schools @ Hwy 210 & Harnett Central Rd 203 Angier to Lillington as a connector to a potential Lillington to Raven Rock / Campbell trail. 204 At the bottom of the hill on Harnett Central Road between Harnett Central and Kipling, there is a dirt road that goes for miles. It roughly follows Neills Creek. From Google maps, it appears this small clearing goes south all the way back to Lillington and north toward Fuquay. It seems that this clearing is a sewage line or some other line and would be a very easy and cheap place to put a greenway as is done in many other cities. 205 Connectins to Wake county trails. 206 New subdivision off Rawls Church Rd, possibly connecting to Fuquay trails 207 Area behind the Lillington ball fields along the river 208 Lillington, along the cape fear river with parking near the bridge 209 I think a side walk or a trail going down the old highway 421 down Old Road into town would be great. I see so many people walking (they probably don't own vehicles) and this is dangerous. 210 Town of Lillington 211 Within and around Lillington. The intersection of so many major thoroughfares makes it dangerous to walk, let alone bicycle or take children out to bicycle or skate. The cvs intersection and the McDonald’s intersection can be deadly to pedestrians or anyone on a bicycle. 212 shawtown community 213 Is there any way to put one from Lillington down 27? People walk down this road all the time and it’s not safe for them. 214 Downtown area, SW Lillington 215 Maybe something in the shawtown area except that boys and girl club t hat doesnt benifit those citizen per say 216 401 into Lillington 217 I think, a greenway at least from Lillington, along Cape Fear River to Ravenrock would be great CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION | 23011921 HCBOC Page 125 Are there other specific locations within Harnett County (and its municipalities) that you believe would be ideal for new greenway trails? Please be as specific as possible. (continued) 218 Raven rock to Lillington. It makes the most sense because it has the highest tourism in the county. It is also the center of the county and is the county seat. Lillington has many outdoor activities and this would be another wonderful activity to add to the list. Raven Rock, Cape Fear Adventures, and a Greenway. Lillington is a perfect choice! 219 A bike-ped bridge over the Cape Fear River to connect the 2 sides of Raven Rock State Park. 220 1) From the Campbell University trail to Erwin along the Cape Fear 2) tie Hector Creek to Angier 221 Hectors Creek to Raven Rock 222 Somewhere in the area between Kipling and Cokesbury would be nice! 223 I'd like trails in the woods off of Ballard Road and 401...local places to walk that I don't have to drive a half hour to 224 Connecting Hector's creek to the colonial pipeline and trails in HollySprings/ Apex would create more possibility of the Cape Fear river and Lillington as a weekend destination. 225 Connecting Hectors Creek to Angier 226 No! Stop wasting money on stuff like this. We don't want to become another Wake county. 227 CARVERS CREEK STATE PARK 228 Any area around Campbell University/Buies Creek; the new library being built in Lillington 229 Attached to any sewer or powerline easements to create a large hub (Lillington and Campbell) and spoke type pathway system. 230 Cape Fear River Trail to Campbell-Lillington 231 Buies Creek, Keith Hills, Campbell, and LIllington to Erwin 232 CU to Erwin to connect to Dunn & Cape Fear River Park. Maybe eventually add trail from park to Lillington going up other side of river area. 233 Campbell to Keith Hills 234 Campbell to Keith Hills 235 I would love to be able to have a bike trail parallel to Highway 421 to be able to ride safely straight from Erwin to Campbell University. 236 Erwin to Campbell University/Buies Creek 237 NC-27 and Leslie Campbell Avenue leading toward and away from Campbell. 238 Coats is the only place I know of that doesn't have a trail or park. Angier has a park and trail dunn has one erwin has one but nothing in coats at all 239 I think the Angier to Coats connection is increasingly important due to the continuous residential development between the two towns. 240 I think it'd be a better idea to just widen the roads for cars. That would be money better spent because the amount of people who'd be using these 'greenways' would be minimal unless someone's getting a payoff. Don't feel anything > you know human nature ... 241 It would be great to extend the Dunn Erwin Trail. 242 Don’t waste our tax dollars on this needless cause. 243 None. It’s a waste of taxpayers money. Many other priorities are far more important than this. If it is needed let it be a private venture and see how many folks are willing to pay for its creation and continued maintenance. 244 Christian light road near the horse trails for raven rock would be a great area to look into. You could also look into the side roads of lillington near the regional water/utilities areA in that area leading down towards the cape fear river. 245 Off of Cokesbury Road, there is a large plot of vacant (forested) land between Shooting Star Lane and River Road that backs to the Cape Fear River and Raven Rock State Park. It would also be great to have a trail running parallel to the Cape Fear River, similar to the Neuse River trail. 246 Dunn to Erwin 247 Dunn Schools! 248 I find them already marked here 249 Greenways and walk ways to all schools and communities they serve. Also to shopping centers to allow the use of bikes for shopping. 250 More forest trails, 256 Keep it central to Harnett County so more people can utilize it. Having this on one side of the county will only be beneficial to communities in that area. Having something more centralized will benefit more of the county. 24 | CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION 011921 HCBOC Page 126 Are there other specific locations within Harnett County (and its municipalities) that you believe would be ideal for new greenway trails? Please be as specific as possible. (continued) 257 Junney road 258 Bike lanes in the town of Dunn, Coats, Anger, and Lillington. 259 Maybe making it a loop rather making it a trail. Make it a loop that connects all regions and people can enjoy it anywhere they live. 260 There are so many open spaces in and around unincorporated Angier, along northern Harnet County. Too many developments are going up here, and it’s really sad. 261 Near public community services such as libraries. They could offer story walk programs. 262 To connect the major towns and cities 263 Please look into building a pump track. Velosolutions build these courses for all ages and skill levels. We travel hundreds of miles just to ride these parks. Only courses I’m aware of in North Carolina are George poston park in Gaston county and the city of Carrboro has one at the MLK park. Thanks 264 No, just looking forward to having more trail options. 265 Just making our roads more cyclist friendly. On a separate note, enforcing laws to keep cyclist safe from dogs and angry drivers. I find most drivers are very courteous, however I have been run off the road before. Additionally been chased by over 15 dogs on different occasions. My bike has been pushed and I have had my shoe bit, both on highway 27. 266 Any new greenway trails are for the best for the County!! Anytime we can keep the farms and few space and be able to walk to them or by them is a win for all! 267 Anywhere a trail can be placed that continues for several miles without a highway crossing. 268 I cannot think of any specifically, but the more the merrier 269 Anywhere! 270 We are so new to the area to make these suggestions but we are excited to explore this beautiful county! 271 Stop trying to make our county “Wake” 272 No more for western Harnett, West of Hwy 87! 273 I think the top priority should be Coats to Dunn/Erwin since there is already a connection from Dunn to Erwin. If you do that connection first then you have connected three towns together. Build on the existing connections. 274 Yes, hiking and cross country trails at the new schools built in our county. Nothing until we get new schools!!! 275 You have a beautiful sidewalk on ray road that isn’t maintained. 276 Wood-shire and Forrest Oak would Benefit from a walking trail it’s right behind the a State park. Thank you 😊 277 I live on River Road... off Christian Light.... my fingers are crossed that someone near this area for sure. 278 Please benches/rest areas along the routes. Coats lacks a park accessible by walking from most of its residents, a greenway could open up that possibility for downtown residents. CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION | 25011921 HCBOC Page 127 2CHAPTER 2: HEALTH AND ECONOMIC IMPACT ANALYSIS2HEALTH and ECONOMIC IMPACTS A complete Harnett County greenway system will provide residents and visitors a fun and healthy way to explore parks, natural areas, historic sites, shopping, and other regional destinations. It will also serve as an active transportation system, providing a safe connection for travel between home, work, and play. When the trail system is completed, residents in Harnett County will experience improvements in their quality of life, including transportation, health, and economic benefits. The pages that follow highlight health and economic impacts and benefits observed in multiple studies for existing trail systems in Virginia, South Carolina, and Georgia. Harnett County could expect similar results once a connected, regional system of trails is implemented, benefiting further from large nearby populations in Raleigh and Fayetteville, that could help boost trail-related tourism and spending. See Appendix B for more on the economic, health, and environmental benefits of bicycle, pedestrian, and trail facilities. CHAPTER 2: HEALTH AND ECONOMIC IMPACT2 26 | CHAPTER 2: HEALTH AND ECONOMIC IMPACT ANALYSIS 011921 HCBOC Page 128 2020 TRAIL COUNTS IN NC Trail counts across the country were at all-time highs in 2020, largely due the impact of COVID-19 and the changes in lifestyle during the pandemic. This could be for a number of reasons. Many gyms have been closed for a large portion of the year, forcing people to find new ways to exercise. Many people are telecommuting, meaning they have more time in the day to use trails. Options for long-distance vacationing and entertainment generally are limited, making people look for closer-to- home activities that still allow them to get out of the house. Whatever the reason, the data is clear: Trail use is at an all time high, and the associated benefits of trails stand to rise with increased trail use. As people form new habits, and as they invest in bicycles and gear associated with hiking, biking, and water trails, the increase in trail use may be sustained well after the pandemic.

CHAPTER 2: HEALTH AND ECONOMIC IMPACT | 27011921 HCBOC Page 129 RELEVANCE TO HARNETT COUNTY: Rural character and economic impact for small towns LENGTH: 34 mi LOCATION: Connects Abington to Whitetop, Virginia TYPE: Rail to Trail CHARACTERISTICS: unpaved, boardwalks/ bridges DATE ESTABLISHED: 1977 OWNER: USDA Forest Service, City of Abington, Town of Damascus The first idea for converting the abandoned rail line into a trail is traced back to 1977. The community was initially opposed and wanted the right-of-way to be given to local landowners. However, the USDA Forest Service purchased most of the corridor before opposition could move any further. The remainder of the corridor, connecting the Town of Damascus to the City of Abington, was purchased by these municipalities. The southern portion of the trail, owned by the USDA Forest Service, runs through Jefferson National Forest, and is managed by the Mount Rodgers National Recreation Area staff. BACKGROUND CASE STUDY:VIRGINIA CREEPER TRAIL 28 | CHAPTER 2: HEALTH AND ECONOMIC IMPACT 011921 HCBOC Page 130 VIRGINIA CREEPER TRAIL A study of the trail’s economic benefits was conducted in 2004. The average distance travelled for non-local users was 260 miles. Of the trips surveyed, close to 15% of them were multi-day trail users. These users are estimated to spend about 4 times more money than that of a day-trip trail user. The study concluded that the trail generates about $1.6 million per year in direct expenditures. A report in 2007 quantified that this amount of money supports 27 jobs and $610,000 in earnings. Considering that the total population of residents around the trail is less than 10,000 people, this money contributes to a large portion of the local economy. The town of Damascus has seen huge benefits from the introduction of the Virginia Creeper Trail. A local business owner remarked, “There is not a business in the community that is not impacted by the trail users. Although some do not cater to the tourist/trail user directly, they all cater to the owners and employees of the tourist/trail user business, all of whom would not be living in the community if not for the trail.” A survey given through a 2011 economic study of the trail quantities that 61% of business’’ incomes are generated by the trail, with some businesses projecting up to 79%. Of these latter businesses that were surveyed, it is estimated that they generated about $98,000 of lodging and meal taxes in 2010.

The old industries were shutting down. Now it supports eight bike shops that service the trail." There is a large portion of local trail users that frequently visit the trail. It was calculated that approximately half of local users are considered avid, visiting the trail an average of over 200 times per year. The average time spent on the trail was 2.2 hours with an average distance of 12.9 miles traveled. Biking is the most common activity along the trail, averaging 56% of all trips. Walking is the next most common with 33%, and the remaining 12% includes jogging, camping, nature viewing, horse riding, and fishing. Over 80% of trail users feel they receive a high amount of health, fitness, and nature viewing benefits from the trail. In an “other” category, 67% of trail users expressed that they receive high benefits from using the trail for relaxation and/ or fishing. The trail can also be used as a social experience for its users. The average size group on the trail is about 3 people, with groups of less than 4 people making up 88% of trips. The remaining 12% represent groups of 5 to 50 people. BENEFITS SUMMARY The Virginia Creeper Trail generates about $1.6 million per year in direct expenditures. CHAPTER 2: HEALTH AND ECONOMIC IMPACT | 29011921 HCBOC Page 131 CASE STUDY: RELEVANCE TO HARNETT COUNTY: Rural county (Greenville County, SC) experiencing growth pressure from nearby city (City of Greenville, SC) LENGTH: 22 mi LOCATION: Connects Travelers Rest to City of Greenville, SC TYPE: River Corridor and Rail-to-Trail CHARACTERISTICS: Asphalt, boardwalk, concrete, 10’ wide DATE ESTABLISHED: 2009 OWNER: Greenville County Economic Development Corp. MAJOR CONTRIBUTING AGENCIES: Prisma Health (once Greenville Health System), Upstate Forever, Appalachian Regional Commission BACKGROUND The Swamp Rabbit Trail’s namesake comes from an old rail line known as the Swamp Rabbit. The line ran from downtown Greenville to River Falls. In 1998, the rail line officially ceased operations (although it had been abandoned for 20 years), and the whole line was put on the market. Upstate Forever (a conservation focused non-profit of South Carolina) saw this as an opportunity and worked with Greenville County to acquire it. Upstate Forever started working quickly, and consulted with Rails to Trails to place the line in the “Rail Trail Bank”. This gave the County the time it needed to purchase the land, but Upstate Forever was acquiring funds to purchase the land themselves in case the County missed the opportunity in time. The land was purchased by the Greenville County Economic Development Corporation in 1999. In order for a rail-to-trail to be established, the official closure of rail operations must be approved by the Surface Transportation Board (STB). Greenville County spent some time debating whether this was ultimately the best move. Members of Upstate Forever voluntarily removed overgrowth from the rail line to build up public support for the trail, and Greenville County eventually filed with STB. However, the rail line still had to be bid upon in case any other rail service would like to purchase the property and resume service. STB kept the $700,000 price up for sale until 2006 when it was declared abandoned. AUGUST 2020 DRAFT 30 | CHAPTER 2: HEALTH AND ECONOMIC IMPACT 011921 HCBOC Page 132 BACKGROUND When the trail was declared abandoned in 2006, Upstate Forever served as the interim trail operator until the County could get rid of the rails and start the process of implementing the trail. There was some debate on how to remove the rails, but an opportunity to sell the high-priced steel for $1 million was presented, and that sent implementation into action. The first section of trail was built between Travelers Rest (which remains as the northernmost end of the trail) and Furman University – a 5 mile long corridor. A $1 million donation (in the form of $100,000 each year, for 10 years) was given by the Greenville Health System (a non-profit now known as Prisma Health), for which the trailed has been named. There were also two initial $250,000 donations by the Appalachian Regional Council, which made the trail possible. Operation costs are estimated to be $60,000 per year. In the time that the County was waiting to officially repurpose the rail line, Clemson University was hired to conduct a study along 16 miles of the Reedy River corridor, for which most of the Swamp Rabbit Trail now aligns. The master plan not only served as a vision for the SRT, but also contributed to mill renovations, Falls Park, Unity Park, the downtown revitalization of Travelers Rest, and several other Greenville County attractions that can be linked to the corridor. In addition to the master plan, another study focused on Community Wide Recreation Needs in 2002. Key points concluded: trails and large, multi- purpose parks were the most needed facilities in the county; half of county residents felt that there were not enough parks and trails near their homes; and over 80% of residents felt that Greenville County should fund improvements in parks over other priorities. CHAPTER 2: HEALTH AND ECONOMIC IMPACT | 31011921 HCBOC Page 133 Trails are the most used recreational facilities in Greenville County. Once seen as only a recreational amenity, the Swamp Rabbit Trail has spurred the creation of many trails in greater Greenville County, and they serve as viable transportation options. About 12% of trail visitors use the trails for transportation. New trails are being created that extend from the River, to communities further east and west of the river. Current and future segments are now associated with colors, much like a transit line. BENEFITS SUMMARY As of 2018, there have been over a half million users of the Swamp Rabbit Trail per year. Greenville County trails have seen a 20% increase in overall trail use and a 13% increase in minority use. Out-of-town users account for 25% of trail visitors, and an increase in sales and revenue for the area ranges from 10% to 85%. In its fourth year after establishment, the trail was reported to have generated $6.7 million in tourism revenue. In 2016, Greenville County Recreation estimated that the trail consistently generates $7 million in economic gain per year. And that was just studying the first 9.7 miles of the trail. As a comparison, the first 13 mi of the trail had cost $2.7 million to build. Travelers Rest, the town near the northern most end of the trail, has seen transformative changes. City staff have seen this first hand: “… probably the single most important thing that’s happened to the city of Travelers Rest in years,” recalled Mayor Wayne McCall. “We’ve probably quadrupled our number of downtown businesses. We used to have dozens of empty buildings on Main Street. Now there are only a handful. Even on U.S. 25, which is our bypass, we’ve seen considerable growth. I think Travelers Rest has more media exposure and people are more enticed to come here and make an investment because of the trail.“ - Diana Turner, Travelers Rest City Administrator 32 | CHAPTER 2: HEALTH AND ECONOMIC IMPACT 011921 HCBOC Page 134 WEB SOURCES: www.upstateforever.org/blog/land-planning-policy/the- trail-that-almost-wasnt www.upstateforever.org/blog/land-planning-policy/ greenville-owes-much-to-the-reedy-river-master-plan www.upstateforever.org/blog/connecting-people-to- nature/the-ghs-swamp-rabbit-trail-more-than-just- recreation www.greenway.org/uploads/attachments/ cj9ioymsb0tmn8aqinsy0154r-b-sanders-se-greenway- summit.pdf www.blueridgenow.com/article/NC/20140518/ News/606026982/HT www.greenvilleonline.com/story/news/local/2016/09/16/ swamp-rabbit-trail-helps-travelers-rest-businesses- boom/89968190/ eatsmartmovemoresc.org/pdf/Economic_Impact_ Report_2016.pdf PHOTO SOURCES: www.bikabout.com/best-bike-rides/taste-of-greenville www.visitgreenvillesc.com/listing/prisma-health-swamp- rabbit-trail/6594/ www.railstotrails.org/trailblog/2016/february/14/south- carolina-s-greenville-health-system-swamp-rabbit-trail/ As of 2018, there have been over a half million users of the Swamp Rabbit Trail per year. Business owners and employees can also speak first-hand about the positive changes that have come from the presence of the trail. “The trail has a 100 percent genuine community feeling,” said Matthew Craft, store manager of Sunrift Adventures. “Our business is booming because of the trail. In addition to daily trail traffic, organized races like the Swamp Rabbit 5K bring in people who would never have come before.” The City of Greenville may serve has the heart of the county, but surrounding communities have been able to create their unique attractions. Travelers Rest has seen diversification in their businesses, which have contributed to a new sense of place in Travelers Rest. Andy O’Mara, a local pizza business owner, remarked, “People say, ‘Let’s go out to eat,’ and they don’t talk about going to Greenville. They go to Travelers Rest.” The health impacts of the trail are seen through the numbers of users that have risen over the years. The average amount of time trail users spend on the trails is 1.5 hours per visit, which is substantial for health impacts, regardless of the distance traveled and type of activity. Travelers Rest has implemented more infrastructure conducive for walking and biking, due to impacts of the trail. The city has undergone vehicular lane reductions, widened sidewalks, and built new parks in the years since the trail has opened, creating a larger network for recreation. AUGUST 2020 DRAFT CHAPTER 2: HEALTH AND ECONOMIC IMPACT | 33011921 HCBOC Page 135 RELEVANCE TO HARNETT COUNTY: Rural and small town trail tourism that draws on larger metro area population (from Atlanta) LENGTH: 61.5 mi LOCATION: Connects Smyrna, Georgia to the Alabama state line TYPE: Rail to Trail CHARACTERISTICS: concrete, multiple bridges DATE ESTABLISHED: 1998 OWNER: GDOT MAJOR CONTRIBUTING AGENCIES: Georgia State Parks, PATH Foundation, Cobb County DOT, Paulding County, and Polk County The Silver Comet was the name of the passenger train that once moved people from New York City to Birmingham, Alabama. In 1992, Georgia Department of Transportation (GDOT) purchased the once inactive rail line, envisioning the corridor would be used for high-speed transit. Many organizations and municipalities were part of the implementation process, but the PATH Foundation ultimately oversaw operations and construction of the trail. It was in 1998 that it became a shared- use, non-motorized path. The Silver Comet Trail is currently 61.5 miles, and passes through 7 cities and 3 counties. As of 2008, around the time that the final mile of the Silver Comet Trail was being implemented, a connection to the 33 mile long Chief Ladiga Trail in Alabama was created. A new branch off the trail is proposed to lead up into North Georgia and into Tennessee, which would expand the trail another 66 miles. The trail is maintained by the surrounding counties and volunteer organizations like GRITS (Georgia Rails Into Trails Society). In 2013, the Silver Comet Trail still held the title for the longest and oldest paved rail-to-trail in the nation, but has since been surpassed by longer trails. BACKGROUND CASE STUDY: AUGUST 2020 DRAFT 34 | CHAPTER 2: HEALTH AND ECONOMIC IMPACT 011921 HCBOC Page 136 The Silver Comet Trail serves an estimated 1.9 million users per year, with over 400,000 people using the Smyrna trailhead (the easternmost trailhead, located in metro Atlanta) alone. Over 71% of users are known to be bicyclists, particularly in more remote areas. Thus, it is assumed that a large portion of pedestrian trips are by local users. About 97% of people use the trail for exercise and recreation, with some people using it for commuting. A study recorded users from 23 counties and 8 states, within just a two week period. The average visitor to the trail spends $50, and about 20% of users take a multi-day visit to the trail. An Inn Owner in Dallas, Georgia estimates that more than half of her customers are brought in because of the Silver Comet Trail. This helps to explain the large revenue generated by the direct spending of trail users: $57 million per year. The trail is estimated to support about 1,300 jobs in Georgia and $37 million in earnings. The total estimated taxes collected by direct and indirect spending is about $3.5 million per year. It is estimated that the Silver Comet Trail contributes a 4-7% increase in property values for land within a quarter mile of it.

In 2013, a study estimated that every $1 spent on the trail’s investment results in at least $3 in economic return, but should the Silver Comet Trail expand, it is estimated that Georgians would gain $4.64 in direct and indirect economic benefits - an over 400% return on investment. BENEFITS SUMMARY The Silver Comet Trail serves an estimated 1.9 million users per year AUGUST 2020 DRAFT CHAPTER 2: HEALTH AND ECONOMIC IMPACT | 35011921 HCBOC Page 137 OVERVIEW This chapter details a recommended series of priority spines for a County-wide Bicycle, Pedestrian, and Greenway Network. The chapter features an overall concept map, typical trail cross-sections, and a series of project sheets that go into more detail about the priority greenway spines. Project phasing is further detailed in Chapter 4: Implementation. BASIS OF RECOMMENDATIONS The proposed network is a result of a collaborative planning process that involved a review of recent and past planning efforts, public engagement, data collection, and technical analysis. Chapter 3 Maps & Project Sheets From the inputs above, the following priority greenway spine concept and projects sheets were developed. PREVIOUS PLANNING Proposed greenways from multiple past planning processes PROJECT PRIORITIZATION Priority project checklist, project sheets, and phasing COMMITTEE & PUBLIC INPUT Preferences from the steering committee & public survey MAPPING ANALYSIS Traffic volumes and speeds, right of way, and geographical features Downtowns, parks, schools, Fort Bragg, existing trails, state and regional trail routes CONNECTING DESTINATIONS + PRIORITY GREENWAY SPINE CONCEPT This map focuses on the proposed priority greenway spines. The spine network is composed of priorities that were the most consistently mentioned in previous planning efforts, committee meetings, stakeholder discussions, and public outreach during this planning process. They fulfill a variety of prioritization criteria that will help them score high in future funding applications, and are geographically distributed across the county. TYPICAL TRAIL CROSS-SECTIONS This series of trail cross-sections provides further detail to different trail configurations based on context. +++ PROJECT SHEETS FOR THE PRIORITY GREENWAY SPINES This series of project summaries can be used when applying for future funding, or when communicating the priority project details to potential partners during implementation. 3CHAPTER 3: RECOMMENDATIONS 36 | CHAPTER 3: RECOMMENDATIONS 011921 HCBOC Page 138 RAVEN ROCK STATE PARK BARBECUE CREEK PARK ANDERSON CREEK PARK CAMPBELL UNIVERSITYLILLINGTON ANGIER COATS FORT BRAGG & ALL AMERICAN TRAIL To Wake County, Fuquay Varina & The American Tobacco Trail To Cumberland County, Fayetteville, & Cape Fear River Trail / East Coast Greenway South (Long-Term) DUNN ERWIN To Lee County & Endor Iron Furnace Trail (Long-Term) To Johnston County & East Coast Greenway North C a p e F e a r R i v e r Signed Bike Route Shared Use Path Signed Bike Route Dunn-Erwin Rail Trail Unpaved or Natural Surface Trail Shared-Use Path Shared-Use Path CONCEPT MAP: PRIORITY GREENWAY SPINES HARNETT COUNTY Shared Use Path CHAPTER 3: RECOMMENDATIONS | 37011921 HCBOC Page 139 STUDY NOTE: TYPICAL TRAIL CROSS-SECTIONS There are multiple unique trail cross-sections that could be used to complete the proposed projects, depending on the context of each specific trail segment. Some sections of trail could be along a former (or even active) rail corridor, along a roadway corridor or utility corridor, next to a river or creek, and other segments may be needed along low traffic volume gravel roads or paved shoulders. Most of these cross-sections fall under the umbrella of 'shared use paths'. A shared use path provides a travel area separate from motorized traffic for bicyclists, pedestrians, skaters, wheelchair users, joggers, and other users. Shared use paths can provide a low-stress experience for a variety of users using the network for transportation or recreation.1 NCDOT SIDEPATH CROSS-SECTIONS NCDOT's typical cross-sections include guidance for sidepaths along numerous highway cross- section types (from 2 Lane to 6 Lane). Please see NCDOT typical cross-sections 2M, 2N, 2O, 2P, 2Q, 3D, 3E, 4H, 4I, 4J, 4K, 4L, 5B, 6G, 6H, and 6I here: https://connect.ncdot.gov/projects/ Roadway/RoadwayDesignAdministrativeDocuments/Highway%20Typical%20Sections%20 for%20SPOT%20On!ine.pdf For the purposes of this plan, sidepaths graphics are shown for "major" and "minor" highways and for "residential" areas. The main distinction drawn is that for "major" highways that generally have higher traffic volumes and higher speeds, greater separation between the sidepath and roadway edge are recommended, whereas for residential areas, less separation is generally needed. For both "major" and "minor" highways, sidepath separation from the roadway edge should be at least 9', but can be even greater depending on the adjacent roadway characteristics (such as traffic volumes/speeds) and design features (such as drainage and right of way). They can be less than 9', especially if a vertical barrier is installed, in constrained situations.

The project is divided into two segments, with a proposed trailhead at the intersection of River Road and Jim Christian Rd, which is roughly a mid- point. This project is recommended as a priority for all the criteria met, but most impor- tantly because the majority of the project lies within publicly-owned right-of-way, and because the project was identified as a priority by Harnett County residents through this plan's public survey. Furthermore, this project is a top recommendation of multiple re- cent plans, most notably, the Lillington Pedestrian Plan (2020) and the Sandhills Regional Bicycle Plan (2017). PROJECT SHEETS The series of maps that follow show an analysis of of the priority greenway spines, includ- ing factors of feasibility identified by the Steering Committee and project consultants. It serves as an inventory of the alignment factors at play in weighing priorities and next steps.

Convert the old railroad corri- dor into a rail trail from S. River Rd to the Jim Christian Rd/S. River Rd intersection. The Jim Christian Rd/S. River Rd in- tersection is another trailhead opportunity - Harnett County owns property on the south- east corner of the intersection. A sidepath should be constructed from Edgar St to the old railroad corridor (0.7 miles) to create dedicated space for bicyclists and pedestrians. Expanding the roadway surface with paved shoulders is another option. In the short-term, consider lowering the speed limit to 25 mph and implementing advisory shoulders1 or shared lane markings and signage. Implement shared lane markings along Edgar St, connecting to the Lillington Community Center here. This could also serve as the downtown trailhead for this project. A END: Mountain Laurel Loop Trailhead Raven Rock State Park Cap e F e a r R i v e r Connect to downtown Lillington and future park development along the Cape Fear River. Moccasin Branch Rd is unpaved. Connect here to the Raven Rock State Park trailhead. Downtown Lillington From the Jim Christian Rd/S. River Rd intersection to Raven Rock State Park, several options are available. S. River Rd (to the Raven Rock State Park Trailhead on Moccasin Branch Rd) currently has very low traffic volumes, a speed limit of 55 mph, and 19'-20' pavement width. Ideally, a sidepath or a shared use path (unpaved) would be constructed into state park property to create dedicated space for bicyclists (and pedestrians). Expanding the roadway surface with paved shoulders is another option. For this two-mile stretch, in the shorter term, consider lowering the speed limit to 35 mph and implementing advisory shoulders or shared lane markings and signage.START: Lillington Community Center 1 http://ruraldesignguide.com/ mixed-traffic/advisory-shoulder 44 | REGIONAL NETWORK 18PROJECT#1: FISH CREEK/CEDAR ROCK MOUNTAIN BIKING TRAILRAVEN ROCK STATE PARKSheet 4 of 5Kenneth C reek Neills CreekCoopers Bra n c h J um p i n g R u n C r e e k Upper Little Rive r Buies CreekUp p e r L i t t l e R i v e r Cypress CreekAnderson CreekAvents CreekParkers C r e e k Hector CreekEast Buies CreekC a p e F e a r R i v e r Bl a c k R i v e r Black RiverCape Fear River nn n n n n n n n n nn n n n n n n nnnn n n n nn n n n n n n n n n n n o oo C H A T H A MC H A T H A M C O U N T YC O U N T Y C U M B E R L A N DC U M B E R L A N D C O U N T YC O U N T Y H O K E H O K E C O U N T Y C O U N T Y J O H N S T O N J O H N S T O N C O U N T Y C O U N T YL E EL E EC O U N T YC O U N T Y M O O R E M O O R E C O U N T Y C O U N T Y S A M P S O NS A M P S O NC O U N T YC O U N T Y W A K E W A K E C O U N T Y C O U N T Y !( !( !( !( !(!( Inset 1 Inset 2 Inset 3 Inset 5 Inset 4 §¨¦95 £¤421 £¤421 £¤301 £¤421 £¤401 £¤401 "$24 "$27 "$55 "$24 "$82 "$42 "$210 "$27 "$210 "$87 OldStage Rd (SR 1006 ) R o s s R d (S R 2 0 1 6 ) A s h e A v e (S R 1 7 2 5 ) Mc Neil St(SR 2016) Ra y R d (SR 1 1 2 1 ) LemuelBlack Rd(SR 1125 )Nursery Rd(SR 1117)ChristianLight Rd(SR 1412)ïïl5 ïïl5 Fayetteville Area Metropolitan Planning Organization Capital Area Metropolitan Planning Organization ïïl5 ïïl5 0 1.5 30.75 Miles µ Bicycle Map Refer to CTP document for more details Transportation Plan Comprehensive Existing Needs Improvement Recommended On-road Existing Needs Improvement Recommended Off-road Existing Needs Improvement Recommended Multi-Use Paths Proposed Grade Separation ( !( Existing Grade Separation Harnett County Base map date: June 1, 2016 Plan date: December 6, 2016 maP 3: Biodiversity and haBitat maP 4: growth Pressure maP 5: natural resources Comprehensive Growth Plan : 15 Lillington Bicycle & Pedestrian Plan (2020) Raven Rock State Park General Management Plan (2017) SUPPORT IN PREVIOUS PLANS Sandhills Regional Bicycle Plan (2019) Grow Harnett County (2018) This project has been identified in numerous local and regional plans over the past five years.

Crossing under US 421/401 bridge (ample space) along the Cape Fear River. A loop trail should be implemented, parts of which could be implemented with future development of this site. US 421 has a wide ROW and the south side of this corridor has significant space between the roadway and ROW edge that could be utilized for trail development. This section could be implemented by utilizing the existing golf cart path corridor from the former golf course. The former golf course site (old back 9 of Keith Hills Golf Course) is owned by Campbell University and could be an excellent opportunity for the development of a river park with a network of trails. One proposal for this site includes implementing pollinator meadows along the former golf course, connected by a system of trails. This alignment follows the Dry Creek corridor, although numerous alignment options could be considered during future development of this site. J o h n s o n F a rm Rd This section of the trail could run along the river edge (due to wetlands, boardwalk construction/higher cost likely) or could be aligned further north away from the river bank and wetlands. If crossing under the US 421/401 bridge and active railroad tracks is not achievable, the McKinney Pkwy intersection could be a potential alternative.McKinney Pkw y A 6’ sidewalk has been funded (through STI) to connect the campus buildings on the south side of US 421 to the bike/ped tunnel under US 421, thus connecting both sides of campus. It is currently scheduled for construction in 2021 (only 6’ wide due to geographic constraints.) Shared use paths proposed in Lillington's recently completed Bicycle & Pedestrian Plan - see plan for further local details. 54 | CHAPTER 3: RECOMMENDATIONS 011921 HCBOC Page 156 LillingtonRiver Park LILLINGTON LillingtonCommunityCenter Central Carolina Community College Buies Creek Elementary Campbell University Government Complex Park (in development) COATS UV27 UV27 £¤401 £¤421 PoorhouseCreek WestBuiesCreekBuies CreekDryCreekEastBu i e s C r e e k T h o r n t o n s C r e e k Cape Fear River I00.51 MILES Existing Facilities Existing Shared Use Path Existing Sidewalks NC Bike Route 5 (Cape Fear Run) Proposed Facilities Shared Use Path Sidepath River Adjacent Trail Base Elements Rail Road Water Parks 500 Year Floodplain ETJ Crossings Creek Rail Road Roadway Proposed Bike Higher Traffic Volume/Higher Speed Corridor (sidepath or wider paved shoulder) Lower Traffic Volume (<AADT 650) (wayfinding and/or paved or advisory shoulder) Gravel Road (wayfinding) Minor Highway Sidepath Minor Highway Sidepath Major Highway Sidepath Major Highway Sidepath Lillington to Coats PROPOSED TRAIL CROSS-SECTIONS (CONTINUED) Existing Facilities Existing Sidewalks Hiking Trails Hiking/MTB Trails Proposed Facilities Shared Use Path Sidepath Residential Sidepath River Adjacent Trail Rail with Trail Gravel Road Base Elements Rail Road River/Stream Lake Parks 500 Year Floodplain Crossings Creek Rail Road Intersection Existing Facilities Existing Sidewalks Hiking Trails Hiking/MTB Trails Proposed Facilities Shared Use Path Sidepath Residential Sidepath River Adjacent Trail Rail with Trail Gravel Road Base Elements Rail Road River/Stream Lake Parks 500 Year Floodplain Crossings Creek Rail Road Intersection Existing Facilities Existing Sidewalks Hiking Trails Hiking/MTB Trails Proposed Facilities Shared Use Path Sidepath Residential Sidepath River Adjacent Trail Rail with Trail Gravel Road Base Elements Rail Road River/Stream Lake Parks 500 Year Floodplain Crossings Creek Rail Road Intersection Existing Facilities Existing Sidewalks Hiking Trails Hiking/MTB Trails Proposed Facilities Shared Use Path Sidepath Residential Sidepath River Adjacent Trail Rail with Trail Gravel Road Base Elements Rail Road River/Stream Lake Parks 500 Year Floodplain Crossings Creek Rail Road Intersection D A 6’ sidewalk has been funded (through STI) to connect the campus buildings on the south side of US 421 to the bike/ped tunnel under US 421, thus connecting both sides of campus. It is currently scheduled for construction in 2021 (only 6’ wide due to geographic constraints.) Existing Campbell University paths from Barker-Lane Stadium to the Convocation Center. Constructing a sidepath along Leslie Campbell Ave and NC 27 between Campbell University and Coats will be challenging, largely due to drainage work and/or ROW acquisition that would be needed. Consider implementing a sidepath as part of any major roadway improvements in the longer-term. Kivett Rd Stewart T o w n R d Leslie C a m p b ell A v e Mc L a m b R d Fleming Rd In the shorter-term, consider extending the campus sidepath from the Convocation Center/track to the Leslie Campbell Ave/Kivett Rd intersection (potentially adjacent to the cross-country trails). This will at least create an opportunity to sign a 'back road'/ low-traffic volume route along Stewart Town Rd, NC 27, McLamb Rd (unpaved), and Fleming Rd between Campbell University and Coats.

Routing the trail to the north in front of Campbell University School of Osteopathic Medicine avoids the existing golf course to the south of the campus buildings. Together, Pearson Rd, Keith Mills Rd, and greenway devel- opment through the former golf course can form a loop between Campbell University and the Cape Fear River. Consider striping advisory shoulders1 along Pearson Rd and Keith Hills Rd. With no existing sidewalks and low traffic volumes and speeds, this will be a low cost opportunity to tilt these corridors to be more bicycle and pedestrian friendly. Furthermore, this could also be the first phase of connectivity to the Cape Fear River. Connect here to a potential Cape Fear River access point. This could also be a connection point for a continued Cape Fear River Trail toward the existing Cape Fear River Trail Park 5.7 miles downstream. The Cape Fear River Trail Park just outside of Erwin is also a designated section of the East Coast Greenway. B END: Cape Fear River START: Powell Ave Connect here to Keith Hills Rd via a vacant parcel owned by Campbell University. Cape F e a r R i v e r Long-term, greenway trail development along Buies Creek could connect to Angier. A public river access point here at the end of Wildlife Rd could serve as an alternative connection across the Cape Fear River to downtown Lillington. Consider constructing greenway through/ along former golf course holes, utilizing existing cart path infrastructure to the degree possible. This section of Keith Hills Rd should serve as an official segment of the Cape Fear River Trail. Trail alignment options include utilizing unpaved road/trail corridors that currently exist on the property. Campbell University School of Osteopathic Medicine Keith Hills Golf Course Future connectivity should include extending the Cape Fear River Trail west to downtown Lillington and eventually Raven Rock State Park. This could be accomplished along the river and/or US 421. 1 http://ruraldesignguide.com/ mixed-traffic/advisory-shoulder46 | REGIONAL NETWORK Harnett County Northwest Area Plan : 45 ENVIRONMENT AND OPEN SPACE PROPOSED GREENWAYS AND TRAILS MAP 12 5 6 8 11 2 6 3 9 10 7 4 Greenways can be an effective and attractive means of protecting water quality and can also enhance the aesthetic and recreational amenities The map shows the proposed greenway trails in NW Harnett County along streams (riparian areas), sidepaths along road- ways, as well as connections to key upland destinations along those corridors.

This section has been proposed to be widened from two lanes to three in STI, but is currently unfunded. If it were funded, it could be an opportunity to include the rail trail/sidepath into the roadway design. Most of the abandoned railroad corridor remains clear and undeveloped through downtown corridor, but also lies in the ownership of 18 different landowners. Trail development could be explored as part of a downtown economic development strategy as well as serving a downtown transportation function, safety improvement, and health and wellness benefit.

Implementing a trail along this section would require voluntary participation from 32 unique landowners. Alternatives such as constructing a sidepath along NC 55 or examining the Oak Grove Church Rd corridor and Black River riparian corridor should also be considered in connecting toward downtown Angier as well as Jack Marley Park. Abandoned railroad corridors are valuable assets to trail networks due to their often direct connection between/through town centers, flat grade, physical separation from automobile traffic, and constructability due to previous grading and base preparation that once served to support railroad traffic. Upon abandonment in North Carolina, property along these corridors that the railroad acquired by easement reverts to the adjacent landowners. Acquiring ROW for trail development along these corridors requires the coordination and participation of many landowners, making implementation of long stretches of trail challenging. For this reason, the NC 55 sidepath alternative is also shown. Due to residential development directly on the abandoned railroad corridor in the southern section of Angier, the trail would need to utilize the NC 55 corridor before connecting back into the southern part of downtown Angier.

This section of the corridor from Coats to Old Stage Rd could potentially be incorporated into the NC 55 widening project that is funded through the STI process (R-5953). This section of NC 55 will be widened to three lanes, with construction likely taking place in the 2030’s. Besides the short section north of Carson Gregory Rd, the abandoned rail corridor runs adjacent to the NC 55 corridor, and could be an ideal location for a sidepath, due to the relatively clear and flat surface remaining from the former railroad corridor.

If used, locate rumble strips on the edge line or within a buffer area that will not reduce usable space for bicyclists. Figure 3-1. When adequate width is provided, shoulders can serve bicycle trips along roads too busy for comfortable shared roadway travel. CLEAR PAVED SHOULDER AREA Any amount of clear paved shoulder width can benefit pedestrians and bicyclists, however, to be fully functional for their use, the paved shoulder area should be wide enough to accommodate the horizontal operating envelope of these users. A To accommodate bicyclists and pedestrian use of the shoulder, provide a minimum width of 4 ft (1.2 m) adjacent to a road edge or curb, exclusive of any buffer or rumble strip. • Where possible, provide greater width for added comfort, user passing, and side-by-side riding.(ii) Functional classification Volume (AADT) Speed (Mi/h) Recommended Minimum Paved Shoulder Width Minor Collector up to 1,100 35 (55 km/h)5 ft (1.5 m) Major Collector up to 2,600 45 (70 km/h)6.5 ft (2.0 m) Minor Arterial up to 6,000 55 (90 km/h)7 ft (2.1 m) Principal Arterial up to 8,500 65 (100 km/h)8 ft (2.4 m) Table 3-1.

It is important to minimize the impacts of these designs to bicyclists using the shoulder for bicycle travel. Figure 3-4. At bypass lanes, widen the roadway to provide a clear shoulder area outside of the travel area. (Based on Figure 4-7 in the AASHTO Bike Guide, 2012.) No signs are required on paved shoulders, but signs may be used to identify a road as a bicycle route. • Bike Route Guide (D11-1c) signs are used to Indicate to bicyclists that they are on a designated bikeway and make motorists aware of the bicycle route. On shoulders designed for bicycle and pedestrian accessibility, the edge should be clearly delineated and defined to discourage unnecessary encroachment by motor vehicles. Options beyond a normal white line include: C A wide 8 in (200 mm) white line. D A narrow buffer space–two normal 4 in (100 mm) solid white lines separated by an 18 in (0.45 m) or greater space. E A wide buffer space–two normal solid white lines, separated by a 4 ft (1.2 m) or greater space and optional crosshatch markings. Discontinue the edge line at intersections and major driveways. On a bicycle accessible shoulder, additional definition of the shoulder alignment may be desired. In these conditions, consider: • A dotted white line to extend the edge line through intersections and major driveways. • A second normal width dotted white line may be used to define the outside edge of the shoulder, defining both sides of the bicycle travel area. AT BYPASS AND TURN LANES At intersections with heavy left-turn volumes, an auxiliary bypass lane, or center turn lane may be provided for motor vehicles. While this lane may encroach into the shoulder space, 6 ft (1.8 m) of the shoulder should be preserved for bicyclist travel. Absolute minimum width of the shoulder is 4 ft (1.2 m) to maintain bicycle accessibility. Figure 3-3. Longitudinal markings along shoulders should be selected in response to shoulder width, and the desire to discourage encroachment by motor vehicles.

The NCDOT bicycle/pedestrian cost estimator tool, accessed here - https://connect. ncdot.gov/projects/BikePed/Pages/Guidance.aspx, can provide further insight to a range of potential costs for paved shoulder improvements. The Small Town and Rural Multimodal Network Design Guide provides detailed guidance on best practices and options for creating bicycle friendly paved shoulders. The graphic above (page 3-7 of the guide) and table to the right (page 3-5) show the types of widths as well as rumble strip placement that enhance safety for both bicyclists and motorists (https:// ruraldesignguide.com/visually-separated/ paved-shoulder). Confirmation signs and turn signs should be included along this route. This wayfinding signage could include a logo designed specifically for this route, or use a version of the logo created for this planning process. For the section that overlaps with the signed East Coast Greenway interim on-road route (see map on following page), signage placement should be coordinated with the East Coast Greenway Alliance. 66 | CHAPTER 3: RECOMMENDATIONS 011921 HCBOC Page 168 LILLINGTON COATSUV27Anderson Creek Park Barbecue Creek Parkand Western Harnett Middle/High Schools Carvers CreekState Park UV24UV87 UV27 ERWIN COATS ANGIER £¤421 £¤401 UV210 £¤401 £¤421 UV210 UV55 UV27 RavenRockState Park Campbell University Cape FearRiver TrailPark UV217 Overhills Elementary, Middle, and High Schools C a p e F e a r R i v e r Proposed Bike Route Higher Traffic Volume/Higher Speed Corridor (Sidepath or wider paved shoulder) Lower Traffic Volume (<AADT 1100) (Paved Shoulder) Existing Existing Shared Use East Coast Greenway (Designated/Envisioned Route) East Coast Greenway Interim Route (Signed, On-road) Base Elements Rail Road Water Parks Fort Bragg 500 Year Floodplain ETJ 0 1 2 MILES I SW Harnett County Bicycle Loop PROPOSED BIKE ROUTE CROSS-SECTIONS Ray Road from NC 210 to Overhills Rd has recently been widened to a four-lane median divided road with a sidewalk along the west side. A sidepath should be constructed along the east side of the road. Ray Road is a key connector to Overhills Elementary, Middle, and High Schools, multiple neighborhoods, and could eventually have a connection to Carvers Creek State Park. Due to higher traffic volumes and speeds, sidepaths are recommended along these sections symbolized in red. If sidepaths are not feasible, or if future roadwork can only accommodate paved shoulders, these sections should include wider paved shoulders (see guidance from the Small Town and Rural Multimodal Network Design regarding wider paved shoulders here - https://ruraldesignguide.com/visually- separated/paved-shoulder). This 1,600’ section of Old US 421 should be a higher priority section to improve. Old US 421 carries higher traffic volumes (4,000 AADT), about 4X as high as any other section between Raven Rock State Park and Barbecue. The NC 217 bridge across the Cape Fear River is a two-lane cross section with 8’ paved shoulders. These wide, paved shoulders should be extended (or sidepath links could be constructed) at least to the entrance of the Cape Fear River Trail Park, as well as Beaver Dam Rd (total of 1,200’).

If this project comes to fruition in the longer-term, a sidepath should be constructed as part of this project. Upon implementation of the proposed greenway here, this would complete a loop. This section through Spout Springs could utilize the former railroad bed that roughly parallels the NC 87 corridor (with connectivity potential south to Fort Bragg and north to Sanford). This section could be completed as a sidepath along the length of HM Cagle Dr, connecting to multiple businesses through the Food Lion Shopping Center. For a direct connection from Anderson Creek Park to Barbecue Creek Park/ Western Harnett Middle & High Schools, any trail development would require participation and coordination with at least two different landowners. Potential sidepath connection from Poplar Dr to Anderson Creek Park. Most of this segment to Highland Elementary & Middle Schools would require participation and coordination with the Carolina Lakes Property Owners Association, and the Southwest Water and Sewer District. From HM Cagle Dr to the landfill site (owned by Harnett County) and Poplar Dr, any trail development would require participation and coordination with three separate land owners.HM Cagle DrBuffalo Lake RdPoplar DrD o c s R d Nursery RdD L Philli p s L n Ray R d 011921 HCBOC Page 171 SUPPORT IN PREVIOUS PLANS maP 3: Biodiversity and haBitat maP 4: growth Pressure maP 5: natural resources Comprehensive Growth Plan : 15 Sandhills Regional Bicycle Plan (2019) Grow Harnett County (2018) This project has been identified in numerous local and regional plans over the past five years.

Continuing trail development up Hector Creek to the Serenity residential development could potentially serve as part of the connection from the southern extension of the American Tobacco Trail to the north side of Raven Rock State Park. Connectivity to Raven Rock State Park property and hiking/equestrian trails along the north side of the Cape Fear River, should be considered as a parallel effort and partnership with NC State Parks. Connectivity to the future Cape Fear Shiner County Park in Lillington along the north side of the Cape Fear River should be explored as a parallel effort and partnership with Harnett County, the Town of Lillington, NC Parks and any interested landowners along the corridor.Christian Light RdKip l ing RdBaptist Grove Rd72 | CHAPTER 3: RECOMMENDATIONS 011921 HCBOC Page 174 Hector Creek Trail £¤401 £¤401 Fi s h C r e e k Coop ers BranchCapeFearRiver Hector Cre e k Raven Rock State Park I00.250.5 MILES Base Elements Rail Road Water Parks 500 Year Floodplain Crossings Creek Rail Road Roadway Proposed Facilities Shared Use Path Natural Surface Trail SUPPORT IN PREVIOUS PLANS TRAIL TYPE & COST CONSIDERATIONS Future residential development between US 401 and Hector Creek (Serenity) should include trail connectivity, linking the Hector Creek corridor toward the future southern extension of NC 751 (which may also include the southern extension of the American Tobacco Trail). The future extension of NC 751 through southern Wake County is proposed to connect to US 401 here. This project will include major roadway widening and construction including a new bridge over Harris Lake. The southern extension of the American Tobacco Trail is proposed as part of this project. Several roads from the Wake County border to Angier are scheduled to be widened/constructed to connect to NC 751, including Rawls Church Rd into downtown Angier. These projects should include sidepaths in the design, connecting into this proposed project.Baptist Grove RdRawls Chu rch RdPiney-Grove Rawls RdConnect to the future Harnett County School site here.

With significant amounts of land recently placed into a conservation easement along Hector Creek in Harnett County just east of Raven Rock State Park, the proposed Hector Creek Trail could potentially serve as part of the connection from the southern extension of the American Tobacco Trail to Raven Rock State Park. The proposed Hector Creek trail alignment and surface type has many variables to consider. While paved trails can be more expensive to implement up-front, natural surface or unpaved trails tend to have more maintenance needs over time. In the survey responses for this plan, Harnett County residents expressed the desire for a diversity of trail types throughout the county. Hector Creek Trail could function well as a paved trail, unpaved trail, or natural surface trail, and could even include a combination of surface types for different users. CHAPTER 3: RECOMMENDATIONS | 73011921 HCBOC Page 175 OVERVIEW The trail corridor analysis in the previous chapter provides the framework for the study, while the following guidelines and ac- tion steps provide direction for the identified agencies and jurisdictions to work together and further refine. It is important for positive, successful action to take place in order to build momentum and gain support on both a county-wide and local level. Most important- ly, Harnett County need not accomplish each greenway project by acting alone; success will be realized through collaboration with state, municipal, university, non-profit, and private partners. Given the massive economic challenges faced by local government as part of the COVID-19 pandemic (as well as local part- ners), it is difficult to know which financial resources will be available. It may be that there are limited resources for greenway projects for years to come, but it is also pos- sible that economic recovery packages that are focused on infrastructure and economic development projects, such as trails, will be better funded than in years past. Either way, the phased approach in this chapter takes into account short-term next steps, followed by steps to take to continue moving green- way projects forward in the medium- and long-term. GUIDING PRINCIPLES FOR GREENWAY TRAIL DEVELOPMENT IN HARNETT COUNTY Greenway implementation should occur with- in an overall framework of greenway prin- ciples. The following guiding principles are derived from past planning efforts through- out the U.S., and reflect some of the best practices that can help guide future deci- sions in Harnett County. THE GREENWAY SYSTEM SHOULD BE SAFE. Bicycling and walking routes should be phys- ically safe and perceived as safe by users. Safe means minimal conflicts with vehicular traffic, and use of clear pavement markings and directional signage. Safe also means education about trail safety and etiquette, and crime prevention through environmental design. THE GREENWAY SYSTEM SHOULD BE ACCESSIBLE. Trails and trail crossings should permit the mobility of residents of all ages and abilities, employing principles of universal design. Bicyclists have a range of skill levels, and trails should be designed with a goal of providing for inexperienced bicyclists (especially children and seniors) to the greatest extent possible. GREENWAY SYSTEM IMPROVEMENTS SHOULD BE ECONOMICAL. Trail improvements should achieve the maximum benefit for their cost, including initial cost and maintenance cost, as well as a reduced reliance on more expensive modes of transportation. Where possible, improvements in the right-of-way should stimulate, reinforce and connect with adjacent private improvements. 4CHAPTER 4: IMPLEMENTATION Angier, NC 74 | CHAPTER 4: IMPLEMENTATION 011921 HCBOC Page 176 GREENWAY TRAILS SHOULD CONNECT TO PLACES PEOPLE WANT TO GO. The greenway system should provide continuous direct routes and convenient connections between destinations such as downtowns, parks, the Cape Fear River, natural areas, schools, shopping centers, and neighborhoods. A complete network of trails should connect seamlessly to existing and proposed sidewalks and bicycle lanes to complete recreational and commuting routes. NAVIGATING THE GREENWAY SYSTEM SHOULD BE EASY. As trails throughout the region are constructed and connected, the regional routes among them should use a comprehensive and consistent wayfinding system (not only Harnett County, but with connections to surrounding areas as well). Wayfinding tools should include directional signage, kiosks with detailed maps, hand- held paper maps, online components such as a website and/or app, and the overall design and branding should be consistent across the tools that are used. This will require coordination with groups like the East Coast Greenway Alliance and neighboring jurisdictions. THE GREENWAY SYSTEM SHOULD BE ATTRACTIVE AND ENHANCE COMMUNITY LIVABILITY. Greenway trails should be compatible with the nature, history and character of the environment. Context and scale should be given thoughtful consideration. Good design should integrate with and support the development of complementary uses and should encourage preservation and construction of art, landscaping and other items that add value to communities. These components might include places to rest along the trail, scenic viewpoints, public art, and educational/interpretive signage about natural features. These, along with historical elements and cultural references, should promote a sense of place. Public activities should be encouraged and local codes should permit commercial activities such as sponsored community runs and rides, food and drink vending at trailheads, and other trail-related events when it does not interfere with safety and accessibility. GREENWAY TRAIL DESIGN GUIDELINES SHOULD AIM FOR CONSISTENCY. With the overall goal of consistency, guidelines used should also be flexible enough to allow for the professional judgment of the design and engineering staff of local communities. This Plan references specific national guidelines for trail facility design, as well as several adopted state and local community guidelines. Statutory and regulatory guidance may change. For this reason, the guidance and recommendations in this Plan function to complement other resources considered during a design process, and in all cases, sound engineering judgment should be used. Raven Rock State Park (source: Raven Rock State Park Facebook page) CHAPTER 4: IMPLEMENTATION | 75011921 HCBOC Page 177 PHASING: SHORT-TERM ACTION STEPS (INFRASTRUCTURE) Building on the above guiding principles, there are also many important and specific actions that could take place in advance of major investments, including coordination with local stakeholders, public workshops, key organizational steps, and the develop- ment of lower-cost, priority trail projects. Following through on these priorities will allow the key stakeholders to be prepared for trail development over time, while taking advantage of strategic opportunities, both now and as they arise.

Counties and municipalities with greenway set-aside and/or construction requirements have been able to expand their greenway system more effectively and rapidly. In addition, the quality of life benefits that greenways provide yield eco- nomic benefits for both the developer and the local government. Counties and municipalities across North Carolina, and nationally, have development ordinances that vary widely. Some local governments do not require open space dedication or greenway set-asides. Very often, decisions related to not having gre- enway requirements are made for political reasons or based on a perception that such requirements might discourage develop- ment. However, it has become increasingly common for greenway requirements to be in place in counties and municipalities in NC, particularly when a new residential subdivision is constructed where a green- way is recommended in a locally adopted plan. Some governments provide incen- tives to those developers who set-aside greenways; others provide a fee-in-lieu program. Harnett County utilizes its Unified De- velopment Ordinance (UDO) to promote the health, safety, and general welfare of Harnett County residents. It does so by setting procedures and standards for the development and subdivision of land, protecting the natural environment, setting design goals, and providing for public in- frastructure. The UDO requires open space set-aside at various percentages based on the zoning of the land. While the County has strong sidewalk requirements, there are no greenway set-aside or construction requirements. The County does have a rec- reation fee for all residential subdivisions or development, with the exception of minor subdivisions, that helps to fund/acquire public recreation or park land. The major municipalities of Harnett County also do not have greenway requirements for new development. The list below summarizes open space/gre- enway requirements for multiple counties and municipalities in the region or similar regions. It should be noted that language varies for each government and nuanced differences are not described here. For example, in some cases, fee-in-lieu is pro- vided as an alternative in certain situations. Greenway Easement Dedication, or Set- aside Required • Iredell County (when part of adopted greenway plan) • Gaston County (when part of adopted greenway plan) • Franklin County (only when Planning Board requires) Greenway Dedication and Construction Required • Wake County, NC (when part of trans- portation plan or open space plan) • Short-Range Urban Services Area - required • Long-Range Urban Services Area and the Non-Urban Areas - may be required; must be authorized by the Planning Director or Planning Board. • Wake County Greenway Plan rec- ommends extending requirement to all areas and when part of Wake County Greenway Plan • Gwinnett County, GA (when part of adopted greenway plan) • Lancaster County, SC (when part of Carolina Thread Trail overlay; develop- ers get a density bonus) 80 | CHAPTER 4: IMPLEMENTATION 011921 HCBOC Page 182 Discretionary Greenway Easement/Right- of-way Dedication or Construction (may be required by administrator) • Mecklenburg County • Chatham County • Cabarrus County • New Hanover County POLICY & REGULATORY GUIDANCE RECOMMENDATIONS FOR HARNETT COUNTY The County should consider require- ments for reservation of right-of-way for greenway; dedication of easement or greenway for public use; and/or construc- tion of greenway in new developments where a greenway or trail is shown on this Harnett County Bicycle, Pedestrian, and Greenway Plan (or other adopted plan); or where a property connects to an existing or proposed greenway. The County should consider this for both new residential and commercial development. Because this would be a new requirement, the County could consider offering incentives in the form of reduced fees, cost sharing, den- sity bonuses, or reduction in other open space requirements when adopted green- way alignments are constructed through private development. For example, the County could require reservation of right of way for a greenway in a new development, but could reduce open space requirements or grant a density bonus or other incen- tive if a portion of a planned greenway is constructed and dedicated by the devel- oper. This document provides additional examples and strategies for incentives. This UDO addition would likely fall under Article VII – Development Design Guide- lines. Greenways should become a new section in this article. Design standards for greenways should also be incorporated into the appropriate section of the UDO and/or other County engineering stan- dards. As the County evaluates this addition and update to the UDO, it is important to un- derstand the legal implications of encour- aging or requiring developer participation in the dedication, construction, operation, and maintenance of public trail and green- way facilities. Before implementing policy changes, the County should work with an attorney who understands current state statutes. Harnett County and its municipalities should strive for consistency in their re- spective land use, subdivision, zoning, and/ or UDO ordinances related to the require- ment to set aside and construct greenway trails. Harnett County should be the leader and work to encourage the county’s mu- nicipalities to add similar requirements and incentives. Utility and Sewer Easements and Provision of Public Access within the Right-of-Way With new development often comes ex- pansion of services such as water, sewer, electrical, and gas. Harnett County and its municipalities should work with utility providers make it standard practice to allow public access (trails) within those right-of- way corridors. For example, Mecklenburg County works with its sewer and water utility providers to include agreements for future greenway development in new utility easements. This requires that utility ease- ments include provisions for recreational use when established. Memoranda of un- derstanding (MOUs) can also provide for joint use of easements for maintenance and access by utility providers and the green- way agency. It is much easier to build this into expansion of systems as opposed to retroactively seeking public access to utility easements. CHAPTER 4: IMPLEMENTATION | 81011921 HCBOC Page 183 Additional Greenway-Related Policy Considerations for Harnett County and Municipalities: The following are additional policy con- siderations for bicycle and pedestrian- friendly development and design practice. The current Harnett County UDO was not evaluated for each of these items; rather, the list is a thorough list of best practices to implement to enhance the overall active transportation and recreation networks in Harnett County. • Requirement for shared-use “sidepath” along major roadways (arterials or above) for new development and/or where specified by the adopted green- way or bikeway plan, the CTP, or other adopted plans. Related notes: • Sidepaths provide a comfortable and safe experience for pedestrians and cycilsts separate from the road- way and can help to better connect to the larger greenway system. • CTPs are the basis for NCDOT’s consideration of the improvement in roadway projects and funding, but does not require developers to provide the improvement unless so specified in local ordinance. So, it is helpful to have in both places. • This Harnett County Bicycle, Pe- destrian, and Greenway Plan rec- ommends sidepaths as part of priority projects, and as part of the long-term network. The decision to select a side of a given roadway for a sidepath may vary with future development as the County grows, and there will be instances where sidepaths should be constructed on both sides of the roadway. Where the side of a roadway is not speci- fied, it will depend on judgement of county planners and engineer- ing judgement. Generally speaking, sidepaths should be constructed to connect nearby destinations in a way that reduces the need to cross driveways, roadways, and intersec- tions to the extent possible. • Complete Street policies and design standards/guidelines that would ad- dress on-street and off-street pedes- trian and bicycle facilities and trail crossings. • Requirement of additional bicycle/ pedestrian friendly features in develop- ment to encourage more walking and bicycling such as: • Street connectivity & Block size requirements Example trail in Mecklenburg County, NC 82 | CHAPTER 4: IMPLEMENTATION 011921 HCBOC Page 184 »See Mecklenburg County/City of Charlotte Subdivision Ordinance, Section 20-23 for good example of context-based connectivity re- quirements and block standards. • Minimization of cul-de-sac streets, Bike/ped connectivity from the sub- division/development to surround- ing destinations and greenways, Pedestrian/bicyclist cut-through path connections »For good model language, see City of Wilson, NC UDO, Section 6.4: Connectivity or City of Wake Forest, NC UDO, Section 6.5, Con- nectivity. Both codes also provide requirements for when bicycle/ pedestrian connections between parcels, public open space, and between cul-de-sacs is required. • Greenway connections to adjacent existing and proposed greenways »New Hanover County, NC’s EDZD Zoning District provides points for new developments that connect to the existing bikeway network and key destinations and provides a good definition of the bikeway network. (Section 54.1-14 and fol- lowing.) • Bicycle parking requirements (com- mercial and mixed-use development, multi-family housing) »Additionally, good standards for bicycle parking design can be found through the Association of Pedestrian and Bicycle Profession- als’ Bicycle Parking Guidelines. (www.apbp.org) and the Bicycle Parking Model Ordinance, from Change Lab Solutions. • Street trees »See Town of Wendell UDO Chap- ter 8, especially section 8.8, Street Trees. • Use of native plants in greenway landscaping & wildlife-friendly land- scaping and maintenance »The Piedmont Triad Regional Council has developed an exten- sive guide regarding requirements and incentives for greening in de- velopment, including native plants and wildlife-friendly plantings. Example trail in New Hanover County, NC CHAPTER 4: IMPLEMENTATION | 83011921 HCBOC Page 185 PROGRAMMATIC STEPS CONTINUE ESTABLISHING COUNTY- WIDE SUPPORT FOR GREENWAY NETWORK DEVELOPMENT. • Present this study to the governing bodies of stakeholder organizations and agencies (including those represented on this study's Steering Committee), such as each Harnett County Municipality, the Capital Area MPO (CAMPO), Fayetteville Area MPO (FAMPO), Mid-Carolina RPO, Campbell University, the Conservation Fund, NCDOT, NC State Parks, Fort Bragg, the East Coast Greenway Alliance, the Triangle Trails Initiative, Sustainable Sandhills, local tourism and economic development partners, community health partners, developers, home owner associations, and local civic groups. Some of these partners could be gathered for a single presentation. Others may require individual presentations. • Seek positive media stories that illustrate the benefits of greenway projects to the wider community. • Organize trail events to get the public excited about what the greenway network will become. • Identify a high-profile local champion such as an elected official or community leader. SECURE STATEMENTS OF SUPPORT FOR THE OVERALL GREENWAY NETWORK • Select a representative from each of the stakeholder organizations and agencies, and provide them with an example letter of support for the greenway network overall. The example letter should be written in a way that reflects the desire to work with willing partners. Ask them to secure a letter of support from each of the groups they represent. • For public agencies, seek an official resolution of support for the master plan. This study should be reviewed by the appropriate approving body, either preceding or following a presentation of the study. The resolution procedures will vary from community to community, depending on existing plans and policies. The managing agency can then use this study, in combination with the resolution of support, to apply for funding. ORGANIZE AN IMPLEMENTATION COMMITTEE Harnett County should invite the Steering Committee members from this study to continue to meet quarterly as an implementation committee. The membership should also be expanded to include other interested parties as the project progresses, such as funding partners and landowners. Committee members would be responsible for helping to make decisions and establishing a line of communication throughout the county. They would convey activities of the Committee and the project overall back to their own organizations and agencies. Members would work together on a voluntary, cooperative basis. Harnett County would call the meetings and set the agendas. The managing group should encourage corporate and inter-governmental cooperation; the active pursuit of local, state, federal, and private grant funding sources; and the use of volunteers. 84 | CHAPTER 4: IMPLEMENTATION 011921 HCBOC Page 186 PROJECT DEVELOPMENT While design and construction are the largest costs for a project, initial project scoping is absolutely critical to identify necessary acquisition, permitting, and design needs that will impact both the schedule and the cost of the project. Critical topics in scoping that will impact both design and construction budgets are property acquisition, clear zones (in sidepath situations), floodplains, jurisdictional features, threatened and endangered species, historic sites, waterways/drainages, utilities, survey, bridges/structures, and geotechnical work. As a starting point for the Lillington to Raven Rock State Park project, a preliminary design (10% design) was completed. This analysis will provide further detail into some of the key elements of initial project scoping. Example trail in Wake County, NC CHAPTER 4: IMPLEMENTATION | 85011921 HCBOC Page 187 LONG-TERM VISION (INFRASTRUCTURE) STATE PARK CONNECTIVITY In addition to the proposed Lillington to Raven Rock State Park Trail, examine opportunities to build trail connectivity between the proposed Hector Creek Trail and the northern side of Raven Rock State Park (including the existing equestrian trails). From the southern section of Raven Rock State Park, develop a back roads bike route to Barbecue Park. Over time, connectivity to Carvers Creek State Park could be developed from several locations - Ray Rd (east), Jumping Run Creek corridor (north), and/or the utility corridor (west). EAST COAST GREENWAY Coordinate with the East Coast Greenway Alliance, Mid Carolina RPO, Fayetteville Area MPO, City of Dunn, Town of Erwin, City of Fayetteville and NCDOT in conducting feasibility studies for ECG alignment north to Benson as well as to the south to Fayetteville. NC BIKE ROUTE 5 (CAPE FEAR RUN) NC Bike Route 5 (Cape Fear Run) should be improved with paved shoulders, (and in some locations, sidepaths) over time. Key sections of the route through Harnett County that carry higher traffic volumes could be priorities for improvement. These sections include Old Buies Creek Rd, NC 55, East Williams St, Atkins Rd, NC 27, US 421, NC 217, and NC 82. FORT BRAGG RAIL TRAIL The old Seaboard Coast Line rail bed from the former railroad corridor that ran approximately parallel to the NC 24/NC 87 corridor through southwest Harnett County could be transformed into a trail over time and in phases. From the proposed spine network in Spout Springs, the next phase would involve working with Fort Bragg to examine feasibility for developing a rail trail into Fort Bragg (with eventual connectivity to Fort Bragg's All American Trail as well as City of Fayetteville trails). AMERICAN TOBACCO TRAIL Coordinate with the Capital Area MPO (CAMPO) and Wake County on the proposed southern extension of NC 751 and the American Tobacco Trail into northwestern Harnett County (connecting into the proposed Hector Creek Trail and ultimately, Raven Rock State Park). CAPE FEAR RIVER TRAIL Work with voluntary landowners on alignment opportunities/challenges for trail development along the Cape Fear River. The long term vision is to connect Lillington to Raven Rock State Park and the Deep River State Trail (upstream in Chatham County) as well as the Cape Fear River Trail Park (East Coast Greenway) in Erwin before continuing to Fayetteville (downstream from Lillington). DEEP RIVER STATE TRAIL Discuss rail trail or rail with trail opportunities and challenges with NCDOT (Rail Division and Integrated Mobility Division), Town of Fuquay-Varina, and Norfolk Southern along the currently inactive railroad corridor from Fuquay-Varina and northwest Harnett County to southeastern Chatham County (near the Deep River State Trail and Cape Fear River). A E C B D F G 86 | CHAPTER 4: IMPLEMENTATION 011921 HCBOC Page 188 CAPE FEAR RIVER BRIDGES Lillington Work with NCDOT and the Town of Lillington to improve the Cape Fear River US 421 bike/ped crossing. Consider constructing a new bike/ped bridge or reconfiguring the southbound bridge as proposed in the Lillington Bike/Ped Plan. With future trail development on both sides of the Cape Fear River in Lillington, this bridge will become increasingly important for trail connectivity. Erwin Work with NCDOT and the Town of Erwin on extending paved shoulder or constructing a sidepath on either side of the NC 217 bridge to the Cape Fear River Trail Park to the east and Beaver Dam Rd to the west. WATERSHED TRAILS As Harnett County continues to grow, work with the municipalities, developers, land trusts, property owners associations, individual landowners, and others on incorporating greenways into site planning and development that occurs along riparian corridors. These corridors tend to be areas with the most intact habitat cores, and should be preserved for not only transportation and recreation, but for the critical foundation of the environmental economy they serve. Many of these are shown as proposed natural surface trails, but these can also be paved depending on the specific project and context. COMPLETE STREETS ROADWAY PROJECTS As Harnett County continues to grow, several roads such as NC 210, Buffalo Lakes Rd, NC 55, and multiple roadways in the northwestern part of the county are funded or proposed to be widened (or new construction). These are opportunities to incorporate sidepaths early into the roadway development process. This is typically significantly cheaper than retrofitting roads with complete streets infrastructure.

Construction of greenway trails cannot take place without a maintenance plan and priority in place. This Plan recommends a strong, collabora- tive approach to maintenance. MAINTENANCE PRINCIPLES The future countywide greenway trail sys- tem should be viewed and maintained as a public resource, serving generations to come. The following guiding principles for maintenance will help assure the preserva- tion of a high-quality system: • Good maintenance begins with sound planning and design. • Foremost, protect life, property and the environment. • Promote and maintain a quality outdoor recreation and transportation experi- ence. • Develop a management plan that is reviewed and updated annually with tasks, operational policies, standards, and routine and remedial maintenance goals. • Maintain quality control and conduct regular inspections. • Include field crews, police and fire/res- cue personnel in both the design review and on-going management process. • Maintain an effective, responsive public feedback system and promote public participation. • Be a good neighbor to adjacent properties. • Operate a cost-effective program with sustainable funding sources. MAINTENANCE RESPONSIBILITIES Recommended greenways in this Plan tra- verse five municipalities and unincorporat- ed Harnett County. Most of the greenway trail corridors will be off-road though some portions will be on-road accommodating bicyclists and pedestrians on sidepaths or bicycle route/sidewalk combinations. Because the network 1) traverses multiple municipal boundaries and unincorporated Harnett County, 2) includes a combina- tion of street, river, parks, utility easements and other properties, and 3) includes both on-road and off-road treatments, multiple agencies within North Carolina, Harnett County, and the jurisdictions must play a role, be engaged, and be coordinated in ongoing trail operations and maintenance. While each major jurisdiction has its own operations and maintenance departments, a key to sustainable quality greenways will be a consistency of standards, cooperation and coordination amongst the communi- ties and building enduring partnerships engaging both public and private sector leadership. Growing a successful greenway system in Harnett County will take capac- ity building and diversification of skills and resources to meet this challenge in those communities. In order to meet the challenges, an in- tergovernmental organization and/or intergovernmental agreement regard- ing the Harnett County greenway system is recommended. An organization or an agreement would be in place to address not just maintenance, but also funding, facili- tating cooperation, organizing volunteer groups, adopting/implementing standards, etc. Agencies to be involved would include appropriate Harnett County departments, municipalities, CAMPO, Mid-Carolina COG, and NCDOT. A comprehensive and cooperative main- tenance management program will deter- mine the activities, maintenance levels and maintenance frequency of the trail system based on expected trail use. The program 90 | CHAPTER 4: IMPLEMENTATION 011921 HCBOC Page 192 will identify tasks, operational policies and procedures, standards, and routine and remedial maintenance goals. At a minimum, the program must identify cost estimates, funding sources, and the party responsible for performing the work on the trails. This will provide the basis for determining annual funding and assignment of personnel and equipment from trail to trail while providing for necessary adjustments. TYPES OF GREENWAY MAINTENANCE: ROUTINE AND REMEDIAL The remainder of this section focuses on general routine and remedial maintenance responsibilities for all greenway and trail facilities. ROUTINE MAINTENANCE Routine maintenance refers to the day- to-day regimen of litter pick-up, trash and debris removal, weed and dust control, trail sweeping, sign replacement, tree and shrub trimming, and other regularly scheduled activities. Routine maintenance also includes minor repairs and replacements such as fixing cracks and potholes or repairing a broken hand railing. Routine Maintenance Tasks The following tasks should be performed on a regular basis to keep all network facili- ties in good, usable condition. Maintenance tasks should be conducted more frequently for greenway, bike, and pedestrian facilities where use is the most concentrated. Meth- ods such as pedestrian and bicycle counts, sketch plan analysis methods for estimating pedestrian and bicycle demand, public sur- vey results, and public meeting comments can be used to determine which resources are the most heavily used and may re- quire the most maintenance attention. The frequency of required maintenance tasks should be established as new facilities are implemented and should be reviewed and updated annually to reflect any changes in usage, safety issues, etc. Facility Maintenance Basic housekeeping of greenway and trail facilities will ensure that the network is clean and functional and will also improve the life of each facility. Volunteer efforts should be utilized in the performance of sweeping and trash removal. Vegetation Management To maintain a high quality network, regular attention should be given to the surround- ing landscape, both natural and man-made. This not only improves the aesthetic quality of the network but also improves the users’ sense of safety, as well. Vegetation manage- ment tasks include the following: • Tree and shrub trimming and pruning • Mowing of vegetation • Mulching and edging • Invasive species control REMEDIAL MAINTENANCE Remedial maintenance refers to correcting significant defects in the network, as well as repairing, replacing or restoring major components that have been destroyed, damaged, or significantly deteriorated from normal usage and old age. Some items (“mi- nor repairs”) may occur on a five to ten year cycle such as repainting, seal coating as- phalt pavement or replacing signage. Major reconstruction items will occur over a longer period or after an event such as a flood. Examples of major reconstruction remedial maintenance include stabilization of a se- verely eroded hillside, repaving a trail sur- face or a street used for biking, or replacing a footbridge. Remedial maintenance should be part of a long-term capital improvement plan. REMEDIAL MAINTENANCE TASKS The following tasks should be performed on an as needed basis to keep network facilities in good, usable condition. The table below depicts the average life of each facility type, as well as general ancillary facilities, with CHAPTER 4: IMPLEMENTATION | 91011921 HCBOC Page 193 normal wear and tear. The repair or replace- ment of existing facilities should be reflect- ed in a projected budget for future mainte- nance costs. Longevity of Facilities • Mulch 2-3 years • Granular Stone 7-10 years • Asphalt 7-15 years • Concrete 20+ years • Boardwalk 7-10 years • Bridge/Underpass 100+ years Facility Repair or Replacement All facilities will require repair or replace- ment at one time or another. The time between observation and repair/replace- ment will depend on whether the needed repair is deemed a hazard, to what degree the needed repair will affect the safety of the user, and whether the needed repair can be performed by an in-house maintenance crew or if it is so extensive that the needed repair must be done by outside entities or replaced completely. Some repairs are mi- nor, such as repainting or resurfacing bicycle lanes and can be done in conjunction with other capital projects, such as repaving the adjacent street. The following are facility repair or replacement activities: • Replenish gravel, mulch, or other materi- als • Repaint/restripe/stain • Repave/seal • Replace asphalt or concrete • Remove encroaching debris along paved trail/sidewalk edges • Regrade to prevent or eliminate low spots and drainage issues • Add culverts, bridges, boardwalks, re- taining walls, etc. to prevent or eliminate drainage/erosion issues • Reroute trail, if necessary, to avoid envi- ronmentally sensitive or overused areas and any safety issues Seasonal Maintenance Seasonal tasks should be performed as needed. When conditions cannot be im- proved to provide for safe use, the facil- ity should be closed to prevent the risk of injury to facility users. Designated main- tenance crews would remove leaf debris, snow, and ice from all network facilities as soon as possible. Leaf debris is potentially hazardous when wet and special attention should be given to facilities with heavier usage. Ice control and removal of ice build- up is a continual factor because of the freeze-thaw cycle. Ice control is most im- portant on grade changes and curves. Ice can be removed or gravel/ice melt applied. After the ice is gone, leftover gravel should be swept as soon as possible. Habitat Enhancement & Native Species The presence/absence of vegetation and the type of vegetation present in a green- way affects habitat quality, the greenway’s effectiveness as a wildlife corridor, ecologi- cal sustainability, and the aesthetic experi- ence for the trail user. Greenways are more effective at providing wildlife habitat and corridors when they have trees and shrubs present. Planting native vegetation along greenways can enhance the trail user’s feel- ing of “getting back to nature.” However, planting woody vegetation may not be an option on greenways whose alignments are on sewer or power line rights-of-way based on planting depth requirements. In loca- tions where trees and shrubs are lacking and can be planted, native species are the most ecologically sustainable choice. As a group, native species require less main- tenance than horticultural plantings and often provide wildlife with a food source. The following activities and tasks should be utilized to enhance and control wildlife habitats: 92 | CHAPTER 4: IMPLEMENTATION 011921 HCBOC Page 194 • Plant vegetation, such as trees and shrubs, using native species whenever possible; consider prohibiting the intro- duction of non-native plants altogether • Take preventative measures to protect landscape features from wildlife, such as installing fencing around sensitive or newly planted materials • Use herbicides sparingly, to eliminate problem plant species only when neces- sary • Deter interaction between facility users and facility inhabitants, such as feeding the wildlife, etc. • Consider launching a “pollinator species initiative”. By supporting pollinators’ need for habitat, we support our own needs for food and support biodiversity in Harnett County. For more information see www.pollinator.org or contact Camp- bell University's project manager for the Pollinator Meadows project. • Low maintenance edible plantings along greenways could also be considered as an amenity to add to Harnett County residents’ experience of the greenways. Planting edibles, primarily trees and ber- ry bushes, in strategic and visible areas of greenways is a way to both minimize long term maintenance and manage- ment, and add value to user experience. This plan recommends a focus on native or locally adapted plants which flourish in our Piedmont region, and grow well and easily, requiring limited maintenance and resources. While there are many op- portunities for edibles along greenways, they are not recommended within gas or electric easements, or near utility service boxes or septic lines. Edibles can be in- cluded as part of the overall project cost, especially as new greenway segments are built and connections made with existing greenways. CHAPTER 4: IMPLEMENTATION | 93 EXAMPLE MAINTENANCE COSTS Reported annual maintenance costs from cities and regions for shared-use trails range widely, from just $500/ mile to over $15,000/mile. The Town of Cary, NC uses $6,000/mile for annual mowing and trash pick up, and minor repairs like replacing a fence rail; they budget asphalt and drainage repairs separately on case by case basis. Some key factors affecting these wide ranges include: • Quality of materials used, and fre- quency of sealing and reconstruc- tion of the path • Amount of leaf drop affecting the trail that requires concentrated sweeping • Amount of flooding of the trail that has to be cleaned up • Amount of snow removal/grooming needed • Whether or not mowing, irrigation, and other care of adjacent open space is calculated in the cost • Presence of waste receptacles The largest factor affecting the an- nual maintenance figures is whether or not the eventual trail reconstruction is accounted for in annual maintenance budgets, as opposed to being consid- ered as separate capital item. 011921 HCBOC Page 195 Facility Types BUILD Transportation Discretionary Grant Program1 FTA Enhanced Mobility of Seniors and Individuals with Disabilities2 Federal Lands Transportation Program (FLTP)3 National Fish and Wildlife Foundation: Five Star & Urban Waters Restoration Grant Program4 CAMPO Funding (LAPP Program) FAMPO Funding RAVEN ROCK STATE PARK TO LILLINGTON RIVER PARK RAVEN ROCK STATE PARK TO S.

Because of the the focus on regional connections and partnerships, the segments from Raven Rock to the East Coast Greenway (Dunn/Erwin) is noted in the table above as most viable. 2. Relevant and eligible activities for this funding source include building an accessible path (sidewalk, shared use path, side path, etc.) to a bus stop, including curb-cuts, accessible pedestrian signals or other accessible features. Sine the Harnett Area Rural Transit System (HARTS) services are provided through Subscription routes, Dial-A-Ride and Demand-Response services, the most likely possible use of these funds would in connection to senior centers and destinations that correspond with proposed project routes, including Universal Healthcare/Lillington, Coats Senior Citizens Center, and the Angier Senior Center. 3. Use of FLTP funds in this case would require a partnership and/or connection to an Army Corps of Engineers project or resource at Fort Bragg. 4. Projects along the Cape Fear River and Hector Creek corridors are selected above since this funding source is for projects that relate to water quality, watersheds and the habitats they support.

Source: Institute of Transportation Research and Education. (2017). Evaluating the Economic Impact of Shared Use Paths in North Carolina. https://itre. ncsu.edu/focus/bike-ped/sup-economic-impacts/ The study included extensive trail user surveys for each of the four greenways over a period of three years. Combined Study Results: A one-time $26.7M capital investment in the four greenways supports: $19.4M Estimated annual sales revenue at local businesses along the four greenways 790 JOBS Are supported annually through greenway construction $48.7M Estimated business revenue from greenway construction $25.7M Estimated annual savings due to more physical activity, less pollution and congestion, and fewer traffic injuries from use of the greenways $684K Estimated annual local and state sales tax revenue from businesses along the greenways “Trails can be associated with higher property value, especially when a trail is designed to provide neighborhood access and maintain residents’ privacy. Trails, like good schools or low crime, create an amenity that commands a higher price for nearby homes. Trails are valued by those who live nearby as places to recreate, convenient opportunities for physical activity and improving health, and safe corridors for walking or cycling to work or school.” - Headwaters Economics (www.headwaterseconomics.org/trail) BAPPENDIX B: BENEFITS OF TRAILS 100 | APPENDIX B: BENEFITS OF TRAILS 011921 HCBOC Page 204 There are a growing number of studies illustrating how our environment— neighborhoods, towns, transportation systems, parks, and trails—contribute to a person’s ability to meet the recommended daily 30 minutes of moderately intense physical activity (60 minutes for youth). According to a Federal Highway Administration report (Evaluating the Economic Benefits of Non-Motorized Transportation), the physical nature of riding a bike leads to decreases in mortality (rate of death) and morbidity (rate of disease) related to obesity and other health conditions. These benefits are not only advantageous for individuals who may avoid negative health conditions, they also reduce absenteeism in the workplace and overall health care expenditures on a local, state, and national level. More information available at https:// rosap.ntl.bts.gov/view/dot/12173 Detailed information on the economic impact of improving public health can be found in Evaluating the Economic Contribution of Shared Use Paths in NC: https://itre.ncsu.edu/ focus/bike-ped/sup-economic-impacts/.

Greenways also protect large swaths of natural plant habitat which are beneficial in the production of oxygen and filtering of air pollutants like ozone, sulfur dioxide, carbon monoxide, and heavy metals. Additionally, greenways act as natural buffer zones that protect streams, rivers, and lakes by filtering agricultural and roadway pollutants and preventing soil erosion. ENVIRONMENT ASTHMA IS THE LEADING CHRONIC DISEASE IN CHILDREN and the number one reason for missed school days (CDC) A minimum of 20 MINUTES OF PHYSICAL ACTIVITY, 3X WEEK, STRENGTHENS THE LUNGS, including those of individuals living with asthma (US National Lib of Medicine) 40% OF ALL TRIPS in the U.S. are TWO MILES OR LESS, and two-thirds of them happen in cars (NHTS, 2009) BIKING 2 MILES, rather than driving, AVOIDS EMITTING OF POLLUTANTS, which would take 1.5 months for one tree to sequester.

Most importantly, greenways and trails often utilize floodplain land, preventing development in these potentially hazardous areas. Additionally, in the immediate aftermath of an emergency, FEMA recognizes that cargo bikes can be used to deliver people and goods in places where roads are otherwise blocked, damaged, or constricted (https://community. fema.gov/story/disaster-relief-trials-pedal- toward-community-resilience). Providing the community with safe and appealing opportunities to access the outdoors can also spur interest in environmental stewardship and the appreciation of the natural assets of the region. Furthermore, being outdoors in nature is shown to increase well-being and provide health benefits, both physically and mentally (www.nrpa.org/uploadedFiles/nrpa.org/ Publications_and_Research/Research/Papers/ SOPARC-Report.pdf ). 102 | APPENDIX B: BENEFITS OF TRAILS 011921 HCBOC Page 206 The Yadkin River Greenway is an excellent example of a rural North Carolina trail that provides economic, health, and environmental benefits to its region.

APPENDIX B: BENEFITS OF TRAILS | 103011921 HCBOC Page 207 $CAPPENDIX C: FUNDING RESOURCES OVERVIEW When considering possible funding sources for trail projects, it is important to remember that not all construction activities or programs will be accomplished with a single funding source. It will be necessary to consider several sources of funding that together will support full project completion. Funding sources can be used for a variety of activities, including: programs, planning, design, implementation, and maintenance. This appendix outlines the most likely sources of funding from the federal, state, and local government levels as well as from the private and nonprofit sectors. Note that this reflects the funding available at the time of writing. Funding amounts, cycles, and the programs themselves may change over time. FEDERAL FUNDING SOURCES Federal funding is typically directed through state agencies to local governments either in the form of grants or direct appropriations. Federal funding typically requires a local match of five percent to 50 percent, but there are sometimes exceptions. The following is a list of possible Federal funding sources that could be used to support the construction of trail facilities. FIXING AMERICA’S SURFACE TRANSPORTATION (FAST ACT) In December 2015, President Obama signed the FAST Act into law, which replaces the previous Moving Ahead for Progress in the Twenty-First Century (MAP-21). The Act provides a long-term funding source of $305 billion for surface transportation and planning for FY 2016-2020. Overall, the FAST Act retains eligibility for big programs - Transportation Investments Generating Economic Recovery (TIGER - now called BUILD), Surface Transportation Program (STP), Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality (CMAQ), and Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP). In North Carolina, federal monies are administered through the North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) and Metropolitan/Rural Planning Organizations (MPOs/RPOs). Most, but not all, of these programs are oriented toward transportation versus recreation, with an emphasis on reducing auto trips and providing intermodal connections. Federal funding is intended for capital improvements and safety and education programs, and projects must relate to the surface transportation system. For more information: https://www. transportation.gov/fastact TRANSPORTATION ALTERNATIVES (TA) Transportation Alternatives (TA) is a funding source under the FAST Act that consolidates three formerly separate programs under SAFETEA-LU: Transportation Enhancements (TE), Safe Routes to School (SRTS), and the Recreational Trails Program (RTP). Funds are available through a competitive process. These funds may be used for a variety of pedestrian, bicycle, and streetscape projects. These include: • SRTS programs - infrastructure and non- infrastructure programs. • Construction, planning, and design of on-road and off-road trail facilities for pedestrians, bicyclists, and other nonmotorized forms of transportation, including sidewalks, bikeways, pedestrian and bicycle signals, traffic calming techniques, and lighting and other safety- related infrastructure • Construction, planning, and design of infra-structure-related projects and systems that will provide safe routes for non-drivers, including children, seniors, and individuals with disabilities • Construction of rail-trails • Recreational trails program Eligible entities for TA funding include local governments, regional transportation 104 | APPENDIX C: FUNDING RESOURCES 011921 HCBOC Page 208 $authorities, transit agencies, natural resource or public land agencies, school districts or schools, tribal governments, and any other local or regional government entity with responsibility for oversight of transportation or recreational trails that the State determines to be eligible. The FAST Act provides $84 million for the Recreational Trails Program. Funding is prorated among the 50 states and Washington D.C. in proportion to the relative amount of off-highway recreational fuel tax that its residents paid. To administer the funding, states hold a statewide competitive process. The legislation stipulates that funds must conform to the distribution formula of 30% for motorized projects, 30% for non- motorized projects, and 40% for mixed used projects. Each state governor is given the opportunity to “opt out” of the RTP. For more information: https://www. fhwa.dot.gov/fastact/factsheets/ transportationalternativesfs.cfm In January 2020, NCDOT released the Transportation Alternatives Program (TAP) Bike/Ped Scoping Guide. This document provides detail and guidance on the Project Delivery Process and important elements to consider in bike/ped project development. For more information: https://connect. ncdot.gov/projects/BikePed/Documents/ BikePed%20Project%20Scoping%20 Guidance%20for%20Local%20Governments. pdf SURFACE TRANSPORTATION BLOCK GRANT (STBG) PROGRAM The FAST Act converts the Surface Transportation Program into the Surface Transportation Block Grant (STBG) program. This program is among the most flexible eligibilities among all Federal-aid and highway programs. The Surface Transportation Program (STP) provides states with flexible funds which may be used for a variety of highway, road, bridge, and transit projects. A wide variety of pedestrian improvements are eligible, including trails, sidewalks, crosswalks, pedestrian signals, and other ancillary facilities. Modification of sidewalks to comply with the requirements of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) is also an eligible activity. Safe Routes to School programs, congestion pricing projects and strategies, and recreational trails projects are other eligible activities. Under the FAST Act, a State may use STBG funds to create and operate a State office to help design, implement, and oversee public-private partnerships eligible to receive Federal highway or transit funding. In general, projects cannot be located on local roads or rural minor collectors. However, there are exceptions. These exceptions include recreational trails, pedestrian and bicycle projects, and Safe Routes to School programs. For more information: https://www.fhwa.dot. gov/fastact/factsheets/stbgfs.cfm LOCALLY ADMINISTERED PROJECTS PROGRAM (LAPP) The Locally Administered Projects Program (LAPP) was first adopted by the NC Capital Area MPO on October 20, 2010. The program is used by the MPO to prioritize and program local transportation projects in the region that utilize federal funding and are the responsibility of the MPO (such as Surface Transportation Block Grant Program – Direct Allocation (STBGP-DA), Congestion Mitigation for Air Quality (CMAQ), etc.). LAPP is a competitive funding program managed by CAMPO that prioritizes locally administered projects in the Region. These projects are funded using the federal funding sources directly attributed to the region with a minimum 20% local match. Member jurisdictions of the CAMPO region are eligible to apply for these funds. For more information: https://www.campo-nc. us/funding/locally-administered-projects- program HIGHWAY SAFETY IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM (HSIP) HSIP provides $2.4 billion for projects and programs that help communities achieve significant reductions in traffic fatalities and serious injuries on all public roads, bikeways, and walkways. Bicycle and pedestrian safety APPENDIX C: FUNDING RESOURCES | 105011921 HCBOC Page 209 improvements, enforcement activities, traffic calming projects, and crossing treatments for non-motorized users in school zones are eligible for these funds. For more information: http://www.fhwa.dot. gov/fastact/factsheets/hsipfs.cfm SAFE ROUTES TO SCHOOL (SRTS) PROGRAM SRTS enables and encourages children to walk and bike to school. The program helps make walking and bicycling to school a safe and more appealing method of transportation for children. SRTS facilitates the planning, development, and implementation of projects and activities that will improve safety and reduce traffic, fuel consumption, and air pollution in the vicinity of schools. Most of the types of eligible SRTS projects include sidewalks or shared use paths. However, intersection improvements (i.e. signalization, marking/upgrading crosswalks, etc.), on- street bicycle facilities (bike lanes, wide paved shoulders, etc.) or off-street shared use paths are also eligible for SRTS funds. The North Carolina Department of Transportation’s Safe Routes to School (SRTS) Program was established in 2005 through SAFETEA-LU as a federally funded program to provide an opportunity for communities to improve conditions for bicycling and walking to school. It is currently supported with Transportation Alternatives federal funding through the Surface Transportation Block Grant program established under the FAST Act. The SRTS Program has set aside $1,500,000 per year of Transportation Alternative Program (TAP) funds for non-infrastructure programs and activities over a three-year period. Funding requests may range from a yearly amount of $50,000 to $100,000 per project. Projects can be one to three years in length. Funding may be requested to support activities for community-wide, regional or statewide programs. The next funding cycle application will be available in January 2021. For more information: https://connect. ncdot.gov/projects/BikePed/Pages/Non- Infrastructure-Alternatives-Program.aspx CAMPO also serves as a partner in SRTS programming. For more information: https://www.campo-nc. us/programs-studies/bicycle-and-pedestrian OTHER FEDERAL FUNDING SOURCES BUILD TRANSPORTATION DISCRETIONARY GRANT PROGRAM The Better Utilizing Investments to Leverage Development (BUILD) grant program is expected to be funded at $1 billion in FY2021. BUILD grants are awarded on a competitive basis for projects that will have a significant local or regional impact. The FY2020 BUILD program’s selection criteria gave special consideration to projects that emphasize improved access to reliable, safe, and affordable transportation for communities in rural areas. This includes projects that improve infrastructure condition, address public health and safety, promote regional connectivity, facilitate economic growth or competitiveness, deploy broadband as part of an eligible transportation project, or promote energy independence. Selection criteria encompass safety, economic competitiveness, quality of life, state of good repair, innovation and partnerships with a broad range of stakeholders. The current application identifies any area(s) in the application narrative that may be af- fected by the ongoing COVID-19 situation for the Department’s consideration in the proj- ect’s evaluation. Trails and their benefits for healthy outdoor physical activity could be especially competitive as projects fulfilling community needs during pandemic-related restrictions.

For more information: https://www.transit. dot.gov/funding/grants/enhanced-mobility- seniors-individuals-disabilities-section-5310 FEDERAL LANDS TRANSPORTATION PROGRAM (FLTP) The FLTP funds projects that improve transportation infrastructure owned and maintained by the following Federal Lands Management Agencies: National Park Service (NPS), U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS), USDA Forest Service, Bureau of Land Management (BLM), U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Bureau of Reclamation, and independent Federal agencies with land and natural resource management responsibilities. FLTP funds are for available for program administration, transportation planning, research, engineering, rehabilitation, construction, and restoration of Federal Lands Transportation Facilities. Transportation projects that are on the public network that provide access to, adjacent to, or through Federal lands are also eligible for funding. Under the FAST Act, $335 - $375 million has been allocated to the program per fiscal year from 2016 - 2020. For more information: https://flh.fhwa.dot.gov/ programs/fltp/documents/FAST%20FLTP%20 fact%20sheet.pdf FEDERAL LAND AND WATER CONSERVATION FUND The Land and Water Conservation Fund (LWCF) has historically been a primary funding source of the U.S. Department of the Interior for outdoor recreation development and land acquisition by local governments and state agencies. In North Carolina, the program is administered by the Department of Environment and Natural Resources. Since 1965, the LWCF program has built a park legacy for present and future generations. In North Carolina alone, the LWCF program has provided more than $75 million in matching grants to protect land and support more than 875 state and local park projects. More than 38,500 acres have been acquired with LWCF assistance to establish a park legacy in our state. As of August 2020, the LWCF is now permanently funded by the federal government for $900 million every year. This is hundreds of millions more per year than the fund typically receives. For more information: https://www.ncparks. gov/more-about-us/grants/lwcf-grants RIVERS, TRAILS, AND CONSERVATION ASSISTANCE PROGRAM The Rivers, Trails, and Conservation Assistance Program (RTCA) is a National Parks Service (NPS) program that provides technical assistance via direct NPS staff involvement to establish and restore greenways, rivers, trails, watersheds and open space. The RTCA program only provides planning assistance; there are no implementation funds available. Projects are prioritized for assistance based on criteria, including conserving significant community resources, fostering cooperation between agencies, serving a large number of users, encouraging public involvement in planning and implementation, and focusing on lasting accomplishments. Project applicants may be state and local agencies, tribes, nonprofit organizations, or citizen groups. National parks and other federal agencies may apply in partnership with other local organizations. This program may benefit trail development in North Carolina indirectly through technical assistance, particularly for community organizations, but is not a capital funding source.

EPA’s Brownfields Program collaborates with other EPA programs, other federal partners, and state agencies to identify and leverage more resources for brownfields activities. The EPA provides assessment grants to recipients to characterize, assess, and conduct community involvement related to brownfields sites. They also provide Area-wide planning grants (AWP) which provides communities with funds to research, plan, and develop implementation strategies for areas affected by one or more brownfields. For more information: https://www.epa.gov/ brownfields/types-brownfields-grant-funding NATIONAL FISH AND WILDLIFE FOUNDATION: FIVE STAR & URBAN WATERS RESTORATION GRANT PROGRAM The Five Star & Urban Waters Restoration Grant Program seeks to develop community capacity to sustain local natural resources for future generations by providing modest financial assistance to diverse local partnerships for wetland, riparian, forest and coastal habitat restoration, urban wildlife conservation, stormwater management as well as outreach, education and stewardship. Projects should focus on water quality, watersheds and the habitats they support. The program focuses on five priorities: on-the-ground restoration, community partnerships, environmental outreach, education, and training, measurable results, and sustainability. Eligible applicants include nonprofit organizations, state government agencies, local governments, municipal governments, tribes, and educational institutions. Projects are required to meet or exceed a 1:1 match to be competitive. For more information: http://www.nfwf.org/ fivestar/Pages/home.aspx STATE AND STATE-ADMINISTERED FUNDING SOURCES There are multiple sources for state funding of bicycle and pedestrian transportation projects. However, state transportation funds cannot be used to match federally funded transportation projects, according to a law passed by the North Carolina Legislature. NORTH CAROLINA DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION (NCDOT) STRATEGIC TRANSPORTATION INVESTMENTS (STI) Passed in 2013, the Strategic Transportation Investments law (STI) allows NCDOT to use its funding more efficiently and effectively to enhance the state’s infrastructure, while supporting economic growth, job creation and a higher quality of life. This process encourages thinking from a statewide and regional perspective while also providing flexibility to address local needs. STI also establishes a way of allocating available revenues based on data-driven scoring and local input. It is used for the State Transportation Improvement Program (STIP), which identifies the transportation projects that will receive funding during a 10-year period. STIP is a state and federal requirement, which NCDOT updates it every two years. STI’s Quantitative Scoring Process All independent bicycle and pedestrian projects are ranked based on a quantitative scoring process, with the following main steps: 1. Initial Project Review (NCDOT Strategic Prioritization Office (SPOT)) 2. Review Projects and Data (NCDOT Integrated Mobility Division (IMD)) 3. Review Data (MPOs, RPOs, Divisions) 4. Review Updates and Calculate Measures (NCDOT IMD) 5. Score Projects (NCDOT SPOT) 108 | APPENDIX C: FUNDING RESOURCES 011921 HCBOC Page 212 Bicycle and Pedestrian Project Eligibility Requirements • Minimum total project cost = $100,000 • Eligible costs include right-of-way, preliminary engineering, and construction • Bicycle and pedestrian and public transportation facilities that appear in a state, regional or locally adopted transportation plan will be included as part of the proposed roadway project. NCDOT will fully fund the cost of designing, acquiring right of way, and constructing the identified facilities. Specific Improvement Types 1. Grade-Separated Bicycle Facility (Bicycle) 2.

Improved Pedestrian Facility (Pedestrian) Bundling Projects • Allow across geographies and across varying project types • Bundling will be limited by project management requirements rather than geographic limitations • Any bundled project must be expected to be under one project manager/ administrative unit (must be a TAP-eligible entity) • Makes projects more attractive for LIPs and easier to manage/let More Info on Prioritization 6.0: NCDOT’s Prioritization Data page has training slides that explain the prioritization process: https://connect.ncdot.gov/projects/planning/ Prioritization%20Data/Forms/AllItems.aspx See the “Prioritization Training” folder and the following session information within: • Session 3: Detailed information on overall scoring components, including local input points. • Session 4: Features relevant project funding information, and • Session 7: Detailed slides explaining the bicycle and pedestrian project scoring STI BICYCLE & PEDESTRIAN PROJECT SCORING APPENDIX C: FUNDING RESOURCES | 109011921 HCBOC Page 213 High Impact/Low Cost Funds Established by NCDOT in 2017 to provide funds to complete low cost projects with high impacts to the transportation system including intersection improvement projects, minor widening projects, and operational improvement projects. Funds are allocated equally to each Division. Project Selection Criteria Each Division is responsible for selecting their own scoring criteria for determining projects funded in this program. At a minimum, Divisions must consider all of the following in developing scoring formulas: 1. The average daily traffic volume of a roadway and whether the proposed project will generate additional traffic. 2. Any restrictions on a roadway. 3. Any safety issues with a roadway. 4. The condition of the lanes, shoulders, and pavement on a roadway. 5. The site distance and radius of any intersection on a roadway. • $1.5M max per project unless otherwise approved by the Secretary of Transportation • Projects are expected to be under contract within 12 months of funding approval by BOT NCDOT Technical Review & Approval • Division Engineer completes project scoring and determines eligibility. • Division Engineer determines projects to be funded and requests approval of funding from the Chief Engineer. Division Engineer shall supply all necessary project information including funding request forms, project designs and cost estimates. • The Project Review Committee will make a recommendation for further investigation or to include on the Board Agenda for action by the Secretary, NCDOT. INCIDENTAL PROJECTS Bicycle and Pedestrian accommodations such as; bike lanes, wide paved shoulders, sidewalks, intersection improvements, bicycle and pedestrian safe bridge design, etc. are frequently included as “incidental” features of larger highway/roadway projects. In addition, bicycle safe drainage grates and handicapped accessible sidewalk ramps are now a standard feature of all NCDOT highway construction. Most pedestrian safety accommodations built by NCDOT are included as part of scheduled highway improvement projects funded with a combination of federal and state roadway construction funds. “Incidental Projects” are often constructed as part of a larger transportation project, when they are justified by local plans that show these improvements as part of a larger, multi-modal transportation system. Having a local bicycle or pedestrian plan is important, because it allows NCDOT to identify where bike and pedestrian improvements are needed, and can be included as part of highway or street improvement projects. It also helps local government identify what their priorities are and how they might be able to pay for these projects. Under the updated NCDOT Complete Streets Policy, NCDOT pays the full cost for incidental projects if the project is proposed in a locally adopted plan (see link to updated NCDOT Complete Streets Policy below).

The program is structured in several distinct phases: A system of safety warrants is developed to identify locations that are possibly deficient. • Locations that meet warrant criteria are categorized as potentially hazardous (PH) locations. • Detailed crash analyses are performed on the PH locations with the more severe and correctable crash patterns. • The Regional Traffic Engineering staff performs engineering field investigations. • The Regional Traffic Engineering staff utilizes Benefit: Cost studies and other tools to develop safety recommendations. • Depending on the cost and nature of the counter-measures, the investigations may result in requesting Division maintenance forces to make adjustments or repairs, developing Spot Safety projects, developing Hazard Elimination projects, making adjustments to current TIP project plans or utilizing other funding sources to initiate countermeasures. • Selected projects are evaluated to determine the effectiveness of countermeasures. The ultimate goal of the HSIP is to reduce the number of traffic crashes, injuries and fatalities by reducing the potential for and the severity of these incidents on public roadways. For more information: https://connect.ncdot. gov/resources/safety/Pages/NC-Highway- Safety-program-and-Projects.aspx HIGHWAY HAZARD ELIMINATION PROGRAM The Hazard Elimination Program is used to develop larger improvement projects to address safety and potential safety issues. The program is funded with 90 percent federal funds and 10 percent state funds. The cost of Hazard Elimination Program projects typically ranges between $400,000 and $1 million. A Safety Oversight Committee (SOC) reviews and recommends Hazard Elimination projects to the Board of Transportation (BOT) for approval and funding. These projects are prioritized for funding according to a safety benefit to cost (B/C) ratio, with the safety benefit being based on crash reduction. Once approved and funded by the BOT, these projects become part of the department’s State Transportation Improvement Program (STIP). For more information: https://connect.ncdot. gov/resources/safety/Pages/NC-Highway- Safety-Program-and-Projects.aspx GOVERNOR’S HIGHWAY SAFETY PROGRAM The Governor’s Highway Safety Program (GHSP) funds safety improvement projects on state highways throughout North Carolina. All funding is performance-based. Substantial progress in reducing crashes, injuries, and fatalities is required as a condition of continued funding. Permitted safety projects include checking station equipment, traffic safety equipment, and BikeSafe NC equipment. However, funding is not allowed for speed display signs. This funding source is considered to be “seed money” to get programs started. The grantee is expected to provide a portion of the project costs and is expected to continue the program after GHSP funding ends. Applications must include county level crash data. Local governments, including county governments and municipal governments, are eligible to apply.

The North Carolina Division of Parks and Recreation and the State Trails Program manages these funds with a goal of helping citizens, organizations and agencies plan, develop and manage all types of trails ranging from greenways and trails for hiking, biking, and horseback riding to river trails and off-highway vehicle trails. Grants are available to governmental agencies and nonprofit organizations. The maximum grant amount is $250,000 and requires a 25% match of RTP funds received. Permissible uses include: • New trail or greenway construction • Trail or greenway renovation • Approved trail or greenway facilities • Trail head/ trail markers • Purchase of tools to construct and/or renovate trails/greenways • Land acquisition for trail purposes • Planning, legal, environmental, and permitting costs - up to 10% of grant amount • Combination of the above For more information: http://www.ncparks. gov/more-about-us/grants/trail-grants/ recreational-trails-program NC PARKS AND RECREATION TRUST FUND (PARTF) The Parks and Recreation Trust Fund (PARTF) provides dollar-for-dollar matching grants to local governments for parks and recreational projects to serve the general public. Counties, incorporated municipalities, and public authorities, as defined by G.S. 159- 7, are eligible applicants. A local government can request a maximum of $500,000 with each application. An applicant must match the grant dollar-for-dollar, 50 percent of the total cost of the project, and may contribute more than 50 percent. The appraised value of land to be donated to the applicant can be used as part of the match. The value of in-kind services, such as volunteer work, cannot be used as part of the match. Property acquired with PARTF funds must be dedicated for public recreational use.

The goal is to improve public understanding of the benefits of preserving existing tree cover in communities and assist local governments with projects which will lead to more effective and efficient management of urban and community forests. For more information: https://www. ncforestservice.gov/Urban/urban_grant_ program.htm LOCAL FUNDING SOURCES Local governments often plan for the funding of bicycle and pedestrian infrastructure or improvements through development of Capital Improvement Projects (CIP) or occasionally, through their annual Operating Budgets. CIPs should include all types of capital improvements (water, sewer, buildings, streets, etc.) versus programs for single purposes. This allows decision-makers to balance all capital needs. Typical capital funding mechanisms include the capital reserve fund, taxes, fees, and bonds. However, many will require specific local action as a means of establishing a program if it’s not already in place. PRIVATE AND NONPROFIT FUNDING SOURCES Many communities have solicited funding assistance from private foundations and other conservation-minded benefactors. Below are examples of private funding opportunities. RAILS-TO-TRAILS CONSERVANCY Under the Doppelt Family Trail Development Fund, RTC will award approximately $85,000 per year, distributed among several qualifying projects, through a competitive process. Eligible applicants include nonprofit organizations and state, regional, and local government agencies. Two types of grants are available - community support grants and project transformation grants. Around three to four community support grants are awarded each year, ranging from $5,000- $10,000 each. Community Support Grants support nonprofit organizations or “Friends of the Trail” groups that need funding to get trail development or trail improvement efforts off the ground. Each year, 1-2 Project Transformation Grants area awarded that range from $15,000-$50,000. The intention of these grants is to enable an organization to complete a significant trail development or improvement project. For both types of grants, applications for projects on rail-trails and rails-with-trails are given preference, but rail-trail designation is not a requirement. The trail must serve multiple user types, such as bicycling, walking, and hiking, and must be considered a trail, greenway, or shared use path.

For more information: https://about. bankofamerica.com/en-us/global-impact/ charitable-foundation-funding.html LOCAL TRAIL SPONSORS A sponsorship program for trail amenities allows smaller donations to be received from both individuals and businesses. Cash donations could be placed into a trust fund to be accessed for certain construction or acquisition projects associated with the greenways and open space system. Some recognition of the donors is appropriate and can be accomplished through the placement of a plaque, the naming of a trail segment, and/or special recognition at an opening ceremony. Types of gifts other than cash could include donations of services, equipment, labor, or reduced costs for supplies. CORPORATE DONATIONS Corporate donations are often received in the form of liquid investments (i.e. cash, stock, bonds) and in the form of land. Local governments typically create funds to facilitate and simplify a transaction from a corporation’s donation to the given locality. Donations are mainly received when a widely supported capital improvement program is implemented. PRIVATE INDIVIDUAL DONATIONS Private individual donations can come in the form of liquid investments (i.e. cash, stock, bonds) or land. Local governments typically create funds to facilitate and simplify a transaction from an individual’s donation to the given locality. Donations are mainly received when a widely supported capital improvement program is implemented. FUNDRAISING/CAMPAIGN DRIVES Organizations and individuals can participate in a fundraiser or a campaign drive. It is essential to market the purpose of a fundraiser to rally support and financial backing. Often times fundraising satisfies the need for public awareness, public education, and financial support. VOLUNTEER WORK It is expected that many citizens will be excited about the development of a greenway corridor. Individual volunteers from the community can be brought together with groups of volunteers form church groups, civic groups, scout troops and environmental groups to work on greenway development on special community workdays. Volunteers can also be used for fundraising, maintenance, and programming needs. ROUND UP FOR THE GREENWAY CAMPAIGN A round up campaign involves local businesses asking customers, upon making a purchase, to 'round up' their purchase and donate the additional change for a project or cause. The Blue Ridge Conservancy, local partners, and over 100 local businesses used this approach during one month each summer over three consecutive summers to raise approximately $400,000 towards implementing the Middle Fork Greenway between Boone and Blowing Rock - https:// www.wataugademocrat.com/community/ round-up-campaign-raises-money-for-middle- fork-greenway/article_afbbd8cd-0a5e-5948- abdd-f05d32545216.html APPENDIX C: FUNDING RESOURCES | 115011921 HCBOC Page 219 LILLINGTON COATS DUNNAnderson Creek Park Carvers CreekState Park UV24UV87 UV27 ERWIN ANGIER £¤421 £¤401 UV210 £¤401 £¤421 UV210 UV55 UV27 RavenRockState Park Campbell University UV217 C a p e F e a r R i v e r UV87 UV24 ¥95 Proposed Bike Route Higher Traffic Volume/Higher Speed Corridor (sidepath or wider paved shoulder) Lower Traffic Volume (<AADT 1500) (paved shoulder) Gravel Road (wayfinding) Existing Facilities Existing Shared Use Path Raven Rock State Park Trails East Coast Greenway (Designated/Envisioned Route) East Coast Greenway Interim Route (Signed, On-road) NC Bike Route 5 (Cape Fear Run)Base Elements Rail Road Water Parks Fort Bragg 500 Year Floodplain ETJ 0 5 10 MILES I Proposed Trail Types Shared Use Path River Adjacent Trail Sidepath Residential Sidepath Natural Surface DAPPENDIX D: GREENWAY NETWORK MAPS 116 | APPENDIX D: GREENWAY NETWORK MAPS Long-Term Vision: These maps show a comprehensive network of potential trail opportunities in Harnett County.
