The Roanoke Valley-Alleghany Regional Commission received funding under the Virginia Department of Transportation's Pilot Transportation Planning Grant to update the Conceptual Greenway Plan for the Roanoke Valley, completed in 1995. In updating the Conceptual Greenway Plan, the Regional Commission partnered the Roanoke Valley Greenway Commission, the Cities of Roanoke and Salem, Roanoke County, and the Town of Vinton. A private consultant, LandDesign, Inc., also assisted with the update.
