Abstract:

To better understand the different ways in which communities are improving their pedestrian and bicycle networks, Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) Division Offices gathered and compiled examples of pedestrian and bicycle network improvement projects initiated by state departments of transportation (DOTs), metropolitan planning organizations (MPOs), counties, cities, and other local entities. The effort identified a total of 86 projects from all States, the District of Columbia, and Puerto Rico, each of which highlighted a project that was intended to improve the transportation network for pedestrians and bicyclists. The network examples were used to develop brief case studies of successful projects. Examples were identified, evaluated, and categorized into several key project types, including: Planning and Prioritization, Shared Use Paths, Corridor Improvements, Bridges, On-Road Facilities, and Intersections and Crossing Improvements. The examples provide agencies with ideas about how they can improve networks for pedestrians and bicyclists and will serve as a source of inspiration for communities who are interested in making network improvements.
