696 Miles of New Bikeways plan to hit Chatsworth
New Bike Path
By: Terri and Paul Mann
The city is working on a draft Bicycle Plan which proposes approximately 696 miles of new bikeways and new policies related to implementation, education, enforcement, engineering, parking, transit integration, maintenance and evaluation.
The proposed draft Bicycle Plan incorporates comments and suggestions from a series of public workshops held in February and March 2008, a public survey and best practices from cities around the nation. The draft 2009 Bicycle Plan is available for download on the project website here.
City staff will take comments on the draft Plan until Jan. 8, 2010. After Jan. 8, staff will prepare a revised Plan, including maps, based on all of the input that has been received through the website, at workshops, in letters, e-mails, and on comment cards. A staff report and a revised draft Bicycle Plan will be released in February 2010, giving two months for review. There will be two public hearings by the City Planning Commission – one in the Valley and one near downtown.
