Mountains-to-Sea Trail Committee
The Mountains-to-Sea Trail stretches 1,175 miles from the Great Smoky Mountains to the Outer Banks. The mission of the Oak Ridge Mountains-to-Sea Trail Committee is to plan and coordinate the development of the trail through the Town of Oak Ridge. The mission will be accomplished in multiple ways, including:
1. Working with landowners, neighborhood groups, town staff, trail users, and other governmental agencies to identify the primary Mountains-to-Sea Trail corridor through Oak Ridge, and to identify appropriate trail spurs and connections;
2. Identifying appropriate trail surfaces and design based on environmental factors and user preferences;
3. Advocating, promoting, and serving as the public face for the Mountains-to-Sea Trail in Oak Ridge;
4. Managing and recruiting volunteers (and design/construction professionals as needed) for the planning and construction of the trail;
5. Developing a plan for trail maintenance, future connections, and ancillary improvements such as trailheads, kiosks, signage, etc.
6. Reporting to Town Council monthly.
