Nine Mile Creek Regional Trail [Case Study]

Weaving 6 miles of regional trail over, under and through a first-ring suburb.

In this interactive case study, members from the Nine Mile Creek Regional Trail team reveal 11 lessons learned and actionable tips to put to use on your next project. We also share how a line on the page of a master plan became 6.1 miles of ADA-accessible trail through the heart of a first-ring suburb, now serving 100,000+ users.

Featuring video, drone footage, interactive maps and technical design solutions, this unique study also answers your most pressing challenges, including:

• What should you always consider before designing any bridge, street or roundabout?
