Describe the Organization's Program Activity:
Part 3 - Line 4a
IN 2021, PORTLAND TRAILS BUILT AND MAINTAINED TRAILS, WHILE RESPONDING TO A CONTINUED INCREASE IN TRAIL USAGE DURING THE PANDEMIC. UNABLE TO USE OUR USUAL NUMBER OF VOLUNTEERS DUE TO COVID-19 SAFETY REQUIREMENTS, OUR STAFF FOCUSED ON POPULAR AND HEAVILY IMPACTED TRAILS AND GREENSPACES, LIKE PRESUMPSCOT RIVER PRESERVE AND FORE RIVER SANCTUARY. IN 2021 WE WROTE CONSERVATION MANAGEMENT PLANS FOR EACH OF THE LARGER PROPERTIES THAT WE OWN OR ARE THE STEWARDS OF. IN 2021, WE ALSO CONTINUED TO FOCUS ON MAKING THE TRAIL NETWORK ACCESSIBLE TO MORE PEOPLE. WE WORKED WITH THE CITY OF PORTLAND TO BUILD A NEXT PHASE OF THE "BICYCLE BYWAY" THAT WILL CONNECT NORTH DEERING WITH DOWNTOWN. WE ADDED MORE MULTILINGUAL WELCOME SIGNAGE. WE SPENT TIME ON TRAILS IN LOCAL AFFORDABLE HOUSING NEIGHBORHOODS TO GET ADVICE FROM RESIDENTS ON HOW WE COULD IMPROVE THE WALKING AND CYCLING OPTIONS IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD. AND, WE WORKED WITH AFFORDABLE HOUSING AGENCIES TO COLLABORATE ON FUTURE FACILITIES THAT SUPPORT WALKING AND CYCLING FOR ALL. WE HELD ONLY ONE FUNDRAISING EVENT AND FOCUSED ON CAMPAIGNS FOR THE PUBLIC TO SUPPORT THEIR LOCAL TRAILS. IT WAS ANOTHER UNUSUAL YEAR BUT THE TRAILS AND GREENSPACES PROVIDED RECREATION, PEACE, RESPITE AND SAFE TRANSPORTATION OPTIONS FOR PEOPLE WHEN THEY REALLY NEEDED IT MOST.
