Trails Program

Mission

DDOT is committed to providing safe and convenient bicycle and pedestrian access throughout the city through the creation of a network of interconnected trails and shared use paths, as they provide a high-quality walking and biking experience, and act as a supplement to existing bicycle facilities.

FAQ: What is the difference between a trail, a multi-use trail, and a shared-use path?
The terms are used interchangeably in transportation planning. A shared use path is a path used by cyclists, pedestrians, and other non-motorized users which is physically separated from the roadway.

The District of Columbia currently has 62 miles of multi-use trails. DDOT, in partnership with the National Park Service, manage, plan, and construct these trails. Current trails include the Anacostia Riverwalk Trail, the Metropolitan Branch Trail, the Capital Crescent Trail, the Klingle Valley Trail, and more
