Razorback Greenway Corridor Plan
The Northwest Arkansas Regional Planning Commission has launched a public survey to gather input for the Razorback Greenway Corridor Plan. The plan, made possible through a planning grant from the Walton Family Foundation’s Northwest Arkansas Design Excellence Program, will guide future development along the 40-mile trail, enhancing smart growth, connectivity and quality of life across the region.Community members, trail users and local organizations are encouraged to take the survey and share how they use the Greenway today—and what they’d like to see in the future.
The Razorback Greenway Corridor Plan will:
- Integrate trail-oriented development (TOD) to support vibrant, mixed-use areas,
- Address housing accessibility by identifying opportunities for diverse housing near the trail,
- Promote environmental innovation through natural infrastructure and open space planning,
- And ensure robust public input throughout the process.

The Razorback Regional Greenway in Northwest Arkansas is a project that has been years in the making. The concept of a regional greenway project has been a goal of regional planners, cities, and residents of Northwest Arkansas for more than two decades. This vision was supported by the Northwest Arkansas Regional Planning Commission (NWARPC), which in 2000 began a long-range planning process that included regional trails as a key component. A task force formed by the NWARPC conducted public meetings and facilitated a coordinated effort among the communities of Northwest Arkansas. The full length of the Razorback Greenway was officially dedicated on May 2, 2015. In July 2018 the Greenway was extended along Little Sugar Creek north into the City of Bella Vista to Mercy Way Street.
The Razorback Regional Greenway is a 40-mile, primarily off-road, shared-use trail that extends from south Fayetteville to the city of Bella Vista. The trail links together dozens of popular community destinations. For more information about the Greenway go to https://razorbackgreenway.org/
