Community Survey Rockaway Township

Connect to Walk and Bike is a project of the Morris Park Alliance, the Morris County Park Commission and your local community. In the interest of providing physical activity opportunities through walking and biking,
the project committee researches the community and its current resources and amenities. Materials are
then provided that include project summary, recommendations for connections, and maps. Materials are
prepared by the project team including graduates of Montclair State University working with The Nomad
Group. If you have any questions about Connect to Walk and Bike, this survey, or if you would like to be
