The Middlesex Greenway is a 3.5‑mile multipurpose rail-to-trail greenway spanning Metuchen, Edison and Woodbridge in Middlesex County. Formerly an inactive Lehigh Valley rail right-of-way, the trail opened in 2012 and is now a vital outdoor resource used by nearby residents of all ages. The Middlesex Greenway Access Plan is a project to foster enhanced access to the Middlesex Greenway. This project proposes to:

Improve access: Enhance use of the greenway by promoting partnerships and enhancing links to nearby public transit stops, schools, existing and proposed activity centers, parks and recreation, employers, and other community destinations.
Improve public health: Use the greenway as an example of the public health benefits created by such an amenity.
Promote economic development: Market the greenway and downtowns/local businesses as a tourism opportunity.
Promote the greenway: Publicize the public health and community benefits of the greenway in order to increase use of the greenway.
