The town of Duck joins the southern and northern beaches via a nice multi-use path that I understand friend Stan White help make a reality. Out of town, the path is adjacent to the road but not connected. In town it takes another form.

Through the town proper the path becomes a marked shoulder on both sides of the road. This is what I mean by being creative and thinking outside the box for our multi-use path. We don't have to throw out the baby with the bath water by suggesting that a multi-use path push close to the road homes and businesses out of the way. We all love the quaintness of our local spots.

Just give us a multi-use path the best way you can. Do not say it cannot be done because of land issues and a crazy $37 million dollar cost. That's an insult to our intelligence. Land issues can be resolved one at a time if need be. An interstate could be built along our 5 mile stretch for $37 million.

Our problem with this stuck in neutral issue is that we have no focused representation at court. Being rural Atlantic Township has its drawbacks when it comes to a voice in government. The commissioners represent us but they also represent the entire county. We are one tiny cog in their machine. Gotta get more vocal folks. And tell them and tell them and tell them.

We. Want. A. Multi-use. Path. Now.

Thank you to everyone that is working to keep this project in the eyes of those that have the power to make the wheels of our bicycles turn on a safe path along Colington Road.
