The purpose of this study is to prepare a plan for a bicycle and pedestrian greenway that is, to the greatest extent possible, on the former right-of-way of the historic Morris Canal in Jersey City. Most of the right-of-way has been filled in, and much of the right-of-way could be used by bicyclists and pedestrians. Implementation of this plan will result in a continuous facility that will enhance bicycle and pedestrian opportunities and recreational space, and celebrate the history of the Morris Canal.
