Description: This dataset is a statewide dataset containing full-length alignments of shared use paths and rail trail facilities. These facilities can only be used for modes of non-motorized traffic; most commonly bicycle and pedestrian use. They are often integrated into the bicycle and pedestrian facilities network, meaning they tie into or are adjacent to sidewalks, dedicated bicycle lanes, or parks; however, some features can be disconnected from a community’s bike/ped network in rural settings. Facilities with a rail trail designation have been converted from an abandoned railway to a multi-use path.Sources are local municipalities’ publicly provided data, Area Development District data collection provided to KYTC, KY Rail-to-Trails and KTYC collected data via field efforts or aerial imagery. Some features were integrated using a combination of the aforementioned sources.
