TRAIL ASSESSMENTS AND MAINTENANCE PLANS

At CTD, we start from the basics- thoroughly analyzing spaces for all of their constraints and opportunities. From there, we collaborate with land managers, public agencies and local trail users to source data and ensure a comprehensive understanding of the recreation setting. While many communities are focused on expanding their trail systems, others are seeking solutions for maintenance and management. CTD specializes in creating customized maintenance plans for communities that ensure a sustainable, safe, and fun recreation facility with minimal burden on local resources.

While great design can significantly reduce maintenance, empowering the community to take ownership and care of their trails is one of the core philosophies of trail sustainability. Along with great design, skilled volunteers and public employees are crucial to the long-term success of a trail system. Ask how CTD can better prepare your local trail workforce to handle the day-to-day responsibilities of trail maintenance and management.
