Walnut Creek creek has finished a draft of its first ever Bicycle Plan and takes it to City Council and a public hearing on August 2, 2011. If you live, work or ride in Walnut Creek, this is a great opportunity learn more about the City’s plans to become more bike-friendly. The Bicycle Plan incorporates new bike lanes and bikeways that were proposed in the General Plan, and provides specific recommendations to promote bicycling as a desirable alternative to driving. Specifically, the Bicycle Plan establishes goals, policies, implementation actions, and priorities for the development of much needed bicycle facilities throughout the city of Walnut Creek.
City Council is expected to consider the Bicycle Plan at a Public Hearing on Tuesday, August 2, 2011, at 7pm in the Walnut Creek City Council Chamber, 1666 North Main Street. Walnut Creek, this is your chance to help your City Council understand how this plan can help transportation in your city.
