Lake Link (Florida)

Lake Link is a proposed linear park and trail system in Central Florida envisioned to connect the region's numerous lakes, parks, and communities. Primarily focused on the areas within and around Lake County, Florida, Lake Link aims to enhance recreational opportunities, promote alternative transportation, and foster a stronger sense of community identity.

The project seeks to utilize existing infrastructure, such as rail trails and utility corridors, while also developing new pathways to create a continuous and accessible network. A key objective is to connect various points of interest, including downtown areas, parks, schools, and residential neighborhoods. The anticipated benefits include increased physical activity, improved environmental quality, and economic development through tourism and enhanced property values.

Lake Link is a collaborative effort involving multiple stakeholders, including local governments, regional planning agencies, community organizations, and private landowners. The development process includes feasibility studies, community input sessions, and environmental assessments. Funding sources may include grants from federal, state, and local entities, as well as private donations and partnerships. The project is still in the planning and development phases, with various segments at different stages of completion.
