Raleigh Comprehensive Bicycle Plan
The Raleigh Comprehensive Bicycle Plan is intended to take an in-depth look at bicycling in the Capital City. It will evaluate both roadways and trails to craft a plan that addresses the use of the bicycle for transportation. It will use an advanced bicycle planning methodology and prepare a Bicycle Level of Service evaluation for the entire community. The new Comprehensive Bicycle Plan will also address education, encouragement and enforcement issues.
The Plan is asking for comments from the public; please submit yours!
