The Parks Department is monitoring the number of people who use the walking trail at Plymouth Park to determine whether it needs to open a
new trail. If the number of walkers in any given month increases to an average of 1,000 people per day, the department will draft a proposal for
a new walking trail and present it at the next budget meeting. Based on the graph, what action should the Parks Department take?
