Trail Enhancements
Urban Pathways to Healthy Neighborhoods: Art
Urban Pathways Initiative (UPI) is a program of the Rails-to-Trails Conservancy that advocates for equitable investment in vulnerable communities to promote the health, transportation and environmental benefits of trail use. UPI provides community-based assistance to groups and municipal agencies which promote or develop pathways intersecting low-income communities. Through case studies in Chicago, IL, Washington, DC, Richmond, CA, and Cleveland, OH, this fact sheet examines the benefits of public art in UPI projects, as well as diverse funding sources to assist with implementing public art.Â
