Trail Strategy Coordinating Group Data Collection Survey

Please see thee blow message from the Trail Strategy Coordinating Group Team Baseline

The Shared Strategy for Trails in Nova Scotia focuses on strengthening alignment, leadership, collaboration, expanding supports for trail development and management, improving planning, and increasing trail use. The Trails Strategy Coordinating Group (TSCG) was established to help guide the implementation of the Trails Strategy.

The TSCG formed three task teams in 2020 to explore key Trails Strategy priorities. The Baseline Team accepted the task of developing a systematic and comprehensive approach to collecting, storing, and sharing trail data useful to trail developers and managers. This task contributes to action 2.1a of the Shared Strategy for Trails.

As an initial step, we are seeking input from trail developers and managers to help us better understand what trail data is being collected in Nova Scotia and what gaps in data collection are most important to fill. Please complete the Trail Data Collection Survey by October 9^th, 2020 to help us answer these questions.
