Tri-State Trails and the Cincinnati Off-Road Alliance, known as CORA, are inviting the public to provide feedback on the Northern Kentucky Regional Trails Plan.
The trail plans are a study to connect Boone, Campbell and Kenton counties through a unified network of paved and natural surface trails.
Two in-person public open houses and one virtual session will be hosted to present proposed trail corridors and destinations. The same information will be presented at each session, and the project team will be available to answer questions and gather input.
An online survey is available for the public to provide written feedback. The survey will be open from Sept. 22 through Oct. 24, giving residents across Northern Kentucky an opportunity to weigh in on which connections matter most.
Public input sessions will be hosted on the following dates:
- Monday, Sept. 22: 6 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. at the Boone County Historic Courthouse, 2988 Washington St., Burlington.
- Monday, Sept. 29: 6 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. at the Campbell County Public Library, Newport Branch, 901 E 6th St., Newport.
- Thursday, Oct. 2: 6 p.m. to 7 p.m. Virtual Session via Zoom; register online here to receive Zoom link.
The Northern Kentucky Regional Trails Plan marks the first time Tri-State Trails and CORA – the region’s two leading trail organizations – have proactively planned paved and natural surface trail opportunities in collaboration with one another. The proposed trail network is designed to provide continuous routes that connect neighborhoods, parks, schools, and job centers, while offering flexible options for people walking, biking, hiking, and exploring the outdoors.
This plan also introduces the concept of a braided trail network, an interconnected system of multi-use pathways and natural surface trails.
