Default multi-modal trail on CR466

This is a multi-modal trail for walkers/runners, bicycles, whatever. It was requested by the Town of Lady Lake for the benefit of the residents who live along the road (notice there are several apartment complexes under construction). This is a county road, not a Villages street and must meet FDOT construction standards. Shouldn't we be encouraging excersize and forms of transportation other than cars? Alternative transportation is something that we all should encourage. This is a small part of an effort to afford alternatives as new construction/reconstruction occurs throughout the state. Notice that all new state roads require bicycle lanes.

Hope this puts your mind at ease.
