Bridging Connections: Expanding Trails on Land and over the Ohio river

In everything we do, through advocacy efforts, partnerships, activities, and programs, we work toward built environment improvements that support the movement of people of all ages and abilities. The connections of our wards, districts, and regional cities are important for those who run, bike, wheel, and use other forms of recreation and active transportation safely, for health, wellness, and alternative transportation as part of their daily routine.

Accessible Multiuse Trails are inclusive recreation & active transportation ways that support active living, recreation, wellness, & alternative transportation options.

In 2009, a small group of Evansville residents met to discuss the city's efforts to further develop the Pigeon Creek Greenway Passage. The group’s collective concerns centered around the deficiency in pedestrian and bicycle trails within our community. Their research work led to examples of other cities with extensive trail systems and the factors that differed in comparison to our community and theirs. The group learned that the effective existence of nonprofit groups assisting their communities to help plan, educate, advocate for, and promote the use of trails was a positive factor. By April 30, 2009, ETC became incorporated as a 501(c)(3) and began its work advocating on behalf of our Evansville Region!

Our work is dedicated to ensuring an active, healthy, and economically thriving future for our community, where everyone from 8 to 80 years will enjoy a safe and connected trail network system throughout our community.

Trails connect communities to one another and provide access to important destinations.
