Greenway: A Safe, Fun, Healthy Way To Get Around Santa Cruz County 

Greenway will be a wide pathway that safely separates people with small children and dogs from people traveling at higher speeds on bicycles, e-bikes, e-boards, and in wheelchairs—providing both healthy recreation and convenient transportation.

Locals and tourists will flock to Greenway to enjoy fresh air, fun, and the freedom of a car-free experience in a beautiful linear park that spans the length of our county connecting our neighborhoods and showcasing all that we love about Santa Cruz County.

We can afford to build Greenway now and when we do communities around the world will look to ours to see how simple design in sync with people’s needs and wants can improve everyone’s quality of life. Let’s work together to bring Greenway to life!


Greenway is the best way

Our neighbors to the South are a few steps ahead

The scenic Monterey Bay Coastal Recreation Trail from Castroville to Pacific Grove is built on a former rail corridor. Decades ago, when the trains stopped running the cities of Monterey and Pacific Grove and the Monterey Peninsula Regional Park District purchased the trail. After years of debate about how to use the land, the decision was made to build a beautifully landscaped bicycle and pedestrian path. The popular path is now one of the main highlights of the region.
