Most if not all efforts related to recreational trails over these years has been focused on construction of new trails. There have been little organized efforts in trail preservation and or preventive maintenance (PM) methods to extend the usable life of the trails.

The goals of this research project where to study existing treatments, how effective they are, promote new methods, and promote regular scheduled PPT for preserving trail systems.
