DeKalb County is home to a network of over 59 miles of greenways, trails, and paved paths. These trails not only connect communities, they also provide recreational opportunities and active transportation options for the County’s residents and visitors. DeKalb’s existing trail master plan was created over 20 years ago, and as the County continues to develop and grow, an updated comprehensive master plan is necessary.
The plan below is being assessed online and in meetings in the county in search of suggestions to make it better and more complete. The Dekalb County Department of Parks and Recreation goal is to develop an implementable trail and greenway master plan built on an inclusive, equitable engagement process and a decision-making framework based on community values, feasibility, and constructability. If you would like to have your say on the plan you can by going to www.dekalbgatrails.com.
