Answer» What is East Coast Greenway mean? The East Coast Greenway is a 3,000-mile (4,800 km) rail trail linking the major cities of the Atlantic coast of the United States, from Calais, Maine, to Key West, Florida. The spine route and branching complementary routes are for non-motorized human transportation, including bicyclists, walkers, runners, inline skaters, horseback riders, wheelchair users, and cross-country skiers. In 2020 the greenway received over 50 million visits. The nonprofit East Coast Greenway Alliance was created in 1991. The entire route has been selected. As of 2021 over 1,000 miles (1,610 km), or 35 percent of the route, is off-road on traffic-protected greenways. The vision is for the entire trail to be off-road. reference
