This committee plays a critical role in the development of Springfield's trail and on-street network, and brings together an unprecedented variety of local agency representatives.

In addition to community members, we also have support from the City of Springfield, City Utilities, Ozark Greenways, Community Partnership of the Ozarks, MoDOT, and Ozarks Transportation Organization.

The 35-mile Frisco Highline Rail-Trail is half in Greene County, managed by the Springfield-Greene County Park Board, and half in Polk County, managed by Ozark Greenways volunteers. Friends of the Frisco formed in 2014, to work on issues specific to this second longest Rail-Trail in Missouri. Projects include helping market to tourists, planning for physical improvements, and partnering with local businesses.

We rely on the enthusiasm and financial support of the community.
