Rails to Trails Statewide Usage Surveys, 1989

This series consists of surveys which were conducted in order to see how often the path was being used. The details of the usage surveys revealed the age, gender, number of times the patron used the path, and what town they were from. They also recorded which users were actual members of the organization. The Board used the results for resource allocation, submission for state and federal grants, and other fundraising opportunities. These numbers also demonstrated the validity of the path to organizations and officials. Included in the collection are forms, results, and, in some cases, the raw data of each survey.
