Trail Permits
Unless properly managed, some allowed trail uses may present a concern for the health, safety, and welfare of trail users and/or the general public. The RRRT has developed a permitting process to manage these activities.
A. Uses and Activities Requiring a Permit
The following activities will require a permit issued by RRRT.
- Trail events (i.e. runs, bicycle rides, horse rides, or other activities open to the general public, or involving a significant number of participants, or for which a fee is charged)
- New access or upgrades to existing access – roads, driveways, farm use
- Easements – under or above ground utilities; parking
- Crossing for timber harvesting or farming
- Hunting – access to lands adjacent to the trail for hunting and/or use of motorized vehicles to retrieve and release dogs
- The use of horse-drawn wagons drawn by a team of 4 horses or larger
- The use of motorized vehicles, other than those used for emergency response or police patrol, to support special trail events such as trail or bicycle rides involving a significant number of participants
- Any other uses not specifically allowed by use or special exception will be considered case-by-case basis
B. Conditions of a Trail Use Permit
Prior to trail use, the applicant must conduct an inspection of the trail and notify RRRT of anything considered hazardous for the safety of all participants. The Tobacco Heritage Trail must be returned to the same or better condition after the conclusion of trail use.
C. Application Fee
There is no cost associated with applying for a Trail Event Permit or a Trail Land Use Permit.
*Permits may be revoked if conditions of the permit are violated.
