Push renewed for 25-mile shared-use path from Charlottesville to Afton

Daily Progress
A movement is afoot to bring new life to long-talked-about plan for an approximately 25-mile shared-use path connecting Charlottesville to the Afton area.
The Rivanna Trails Foundation is petitioning the Albemarle County Board of Supervisors to move forward with a feasibility study of the path from city to the Blue Ridge Tunnel.
A Three Notched Trail has been discussed for a number of years, and supporters say it would not only serve outdoor enthusiasts, but also commuters and could bring tourists to the area — similar to what the Virginia Capital Trail has done for the Richmond-to-Williamsburg area.
Funding for the study was offered from the Virginia Department of Transportation last summer, but the county has decided not to move forward with it now due to staff capacity and overall capital project funding constraints.
