The path will reduce traffic congestion in the vicinity of the school and encourage students to walk or ride bikes to school by offering a safer alternative then what currently exists. Businesses located along the path are likely to enjoy easier access for pedestrians and bicyclists and less safety concerns for motorists. The path may also be seen as a positive asset to potential new residents, thereby increasing residential development in Harwood.
