Greenways are popular in many communities across the country to connect points in town by providing an off-road paved walking/running/biking trail/path. They are generally maintained by Parks & Rec. Additionally, the best greenway paths have connected dirt paths for off road biking and trail running. While there are some great paved paths that run along the Red River in North Fargo to Lindenwood Park, it would be wonderful to have a connected and usable greenspace that is not underwater in the precious spring and summer months that it gets the most use. Streets Alive has been a roaring success- why not establish a sustainable urban space where individuals, friends, and families can enjoy the beautiful outdoors regularly.
