* 1. The Charles River Conservancy is conducting this survey to gauge public opinion of the Charles River cycling and pedestrian path network. In particular, we are looking for the opinions of a variety of people that use the paths. Information from this survey will be used to determine successful areas along the paths, as well as areas of concern. The collected data will also be used to focus and refine our advocacy efforts towards creating a better, safer network of paths along the Charles River as part of our #RiverPaths campaign.
