Growing greenways : a multimodal trail system for Moorhead, Minnesota
Abstract
The following thesis relates to the Fargo-Moorhead buyouts for the Fargo-Moorhead Diversion. More specifically it will be focuses on Moorhead’s side of the Red River and their additional concern of the results of the Diversion and lack of bike facilities along the river. The parcels directly adjacent to the Red River in Moorhead between I-29 and Main Avenue are used as a test site for future expansion to include all adjacent parcels along the Red River to create an established Multimodal Greenway. This Multimodal Greenway will be incorporated into Metro COG’s current vision of the future by displaying the strengths of such an asset and will be used to make some of the improvements that have been suggested in the long term transportation plan for the future of the Fargo-Moorhead Metropolitan Region.
