We are releasing the draft Allegany County-wide Trail Master Plan for review. Please send your comments and suggestions to Stacy.Beardsley@alleganyco.gov by November 7, 2025.
The Allegany County-wide Trail Master Plan presents a comprehensive vision to guide the future planning and implementation of a county-wide network of public trails across Allegany County’s rural and mountainous landscape. The plan builds on previous local and regional planning efforts, community feedback, and stakeholder input to identify opportunities to expand recreational access, improve regional connectivity, and support active transportation through a more integrated and accessible trail system. If you have any questions, please contact either Stacy or Kier at 585-268-7472.
The plan is built around six core goals:
• Promote economic development through trail-oriented revitalization
• Foster interjurisdictional collaboration and planning
• Enhance regional connectivity of trail systems
• Expand equitable recreational access for all residents
• Ensure environmental and economic sustainability
• Promote education and awareness of trail infrastructure and amenities
