TITLE: GREENWAYS TRAILS PRIORITIZATION PROJECT BIKING TRAILS PRIORITIES

Geodataset Name:      BKPRIO
Geodataset Type:      SHAPE
Geodataset Feature:   POLYGON

GENERAL DESCRIPTION:

This dataset contains offroad biking trail opportunities prioritization results from the Office of Greenways and Trails Prioritization Project. The original offroad biking trail opportunities were identified in the Office of Greenways and Trails Implementation Plan adopted by the Florida Legislature in 1999. The trail prioritization results contained in this dataset were approved by the Florida Greenways and Trails Council in May 2001. Offroad biking trail segments include both trails exclusively reserved for offroad biking and multi-use trails open to offroad biking, hiking and equestrian use. Offroad biking trails are primarily unpaved with some paved areas identified for connectors and on multi-use trails.
