Westchester County Trail and Bike Route System

This data represents the Westchester County Trailways System, consisting of over 250 miles of existing and proposed off-road bike and walking trails, as well as on-road bicycle routes as of November 2014. These facilities are typically located within abandoned railroad rights of way, utility and parkway rights of way and along transportation corridors. These trail facilities fall under the jurisdiction of either Westchester County, New York State and municipal entities. The trail system reflects the 2001 Tri-county trail master plan and includes more recent trail alignments such as RiverWalk and the Colonial Greenway, Kitchawan-Teatown Trail, White Plains Greenway and East Coast Greenway Road Route. Also featured are trails such as: the North and South County Trailways along the former Putnam Railroad Right-Of-Way; the Briarcliff-Peekskill Trailway; the Bronx River Pathway; the Old Croton Aqueduct Trailway; and East-West links such as the Tarrytown-Kensico Trailway. Extensions of the North and South County Trailways into Putnam County and The Bronx are also mapped. Road corridors proposed as bicycle "share the road" routes are also shown. Not included are non-linear, self-contained, trail systems within county and other parks and open spaces.
