Our Mission

Friends of the Columbia Greenway Rail Trail, Inc. (FOCGRT), an outgrowth of the downtown Westfield visioning and strategic planning sessions of 2009, exists to create pathways to a bicycle- and pedestrian-friendly Westfield.

Specifically, we work to:

  1. achieve 100% design and construction of the Columbia Greenway Rail Trail,

  2. establish and sustain maintenance of the trail; and,

  3. educate on the need for comprehensive infrastructure to respond to the need for a safe, viable, and accessible active transportation network in the city of Westfield.
