FROG Presents :: Greeneway Usage Survey

Friends of the Greeneway (FROG) Want to Hear From You: Help Shape the Future of the Greeneway

At North Augusta Forward, we believe that great public spaces are shaped by the people who use them. That’s why we’re asking for your input through a short Greeneway survey.

Whether you walk, run, bike, or just enjoy a peaceful moment along the trail, your voice matters. This survey will help planners, and community partners better understand how the Greeneway is being used, what improvements are most needed, and how we can ensure it continues to be a safe, accessible, and beloved asset for everyone.

Your feedback will guide future investments in trail maintenance, connectivity, and amenities—and it only takes a few minutes to complete.

Take the survey now and help shape the future of the Greeneway: COMPLETE SURVEY

Thank you for being part of the Greeneway’s story!
