Impact: This trail, when completed will be the major non -motorized
transportation corridor in the County.
Benefit: Development of the trail will expand opportunities for the greater
Williamson County community to use the trail for transportation,
fitness and recreation. Trailheads strategically placed will provide
easy access on and off the trail and the trail will also be constructed
in such a way as to be easily accessed by emergency services and
the police as needed.
