What is the Metro Bikeway Master Plan?
Since 1968, six bicycle and trail plans have been created by the communities in the Iowa City urbanized area. This year, the communities in the urbanized area agreed a new regional bicycle plan will provide much needed inventory of existing facilities and opportunities to improve bicycle access – many stemming from past enhancements. The plan will address opportunities to improve bicycling through education, encouragement, enforcement, and on-street enhancements.
As the metropolitan planning organization for the area, the Johnson County Council of Governments (JCCOG) was asked to develop the plan.
Please include this notice in upcoming newsletters and mailing lists, or forward to friends who may be interested in attending. We look forward to seeing you at a workshop!”
