Constitution Trail

Action 47

Work with the Town of Normal to carefully consider extension of the Constitution Trail and its location in relation to Illinois State University.

Baseline Information

• Accessibility remains at the University’s forefront as migration of campus parking moves from the core to the periphery of campus. It is our shared responsibility to ensure that unobstructed travel patterns are efficient, aesthetic, and promote opportunities for university-community interactions. This will include working closely with the Town of Normal and aligning the Constitution Trail through or adjacent to university boundaries, increasing university-community interactions.
