By restoring environmental damage and creating an accessible recreational opportunity, the ARCRP will provide critical economic development and enhance livelihoods in this rural community. The goals of this project are to complete the two mile section of trail within the ARCRP, including wetland protection and restoration, interpretive signage, and art installations.
