A Guide for Sharing the Drive in Central Park was prepared in cooperation with City of New York/Parks and Recreation, New York Police Department, new York City Departement of Transportation, President of the Borough of Manhatttan, Central Park Precinct Community Council, New Yoork Road Runners Club, New York Cycle Club, New York Road Skaters Association, Central Park Skate Patrol, Central Park Medical Unit, and Century Road Club Association. The mission of the Central Park Conservancy is to restore, manage, and preserve Central Park, in partnership with the public, for the enjoyment of current and future generations. Since its founding in 1980, the Conservancy has developed and implemented a major management and restoration plan; funded major capital improvements; crated programs for wolunteers and visitors; built an endowment to ensure continued Park maintenance; and set new standards of excellence in Park care.
