42 <br /> Statewide & Regional Context <br /> As Orange County advances its vision for a connected trail network, it is important to understand these <br /> recommendations within the broader context of the systems that surround and shape it. At the statewide <br /> level, North Carolina's State Trails System (as shown in the map below) links various landscapes through a <br /> network of 14 trails, each of which is composed of multiple segments that are managed by federal, state, or <br /> local government agencies, nonprofit organizations, or private landowners!The Mountains to Sea Trail is part <br /> of this system, spanning west to east across Orange County, making it a critical priority for many community <br /> members and a significant component of the Trails Plan. <br /> At the regional scale, government councils and Metropolitan Planning Organizations (MPOs) across the <br /> Piedmont region are working with the NC Trails Program to expand greenways and multi-modal corridors <br /> across the county.These statewide and regional efforts provide the momentum and context for the proposed <br /> Orange County Trails Plan, which is designed to respond to local community needs. <br /> OR <br /> '$.y`q °s�'' ?"F g C a if YY ,q't��m • " sit -`,a o the h Yr <br /> 37 irPiJ ITT :p.r 1 a #1 f ! _ .li�0^d <br /> . <br /> ones Elk knob ytoner.—rpilot -..
