There are many steps involved in planning and building a safety Path or trail:

• Choose the best route and most economical construction technique
• Obtain necessary easements and permits
• Use due diligence in following established guidelines: (ASHTO, ADA, municipal and local government requirements, WRC, Road Commission, DNR, utilities, HDC, tree ordinance, etc.)
• Obtain Funding through grants, millage, developer contributions to safety Paths Fund
• Choose contractor and monitor construction
• Maintain existing SPT trails and pathways

Challenging terrain such as hills and wetlands often demand structures beyond a simple safety path.
