The Raleigh Public Record reported earlier this month that the Raleigh City Council approved a comprehensive bicycle plan calling for almost 450 miles of greenways and bicycle lanes. It also includes two dozen priority projects to make the city more bicycle friendly.
The 838 comments received on the plan exceeded input received on similar plans from both Durham and Mecklenburg County (Charlotte). One of the most stressed items was cyclist-motorist education, and key recommendations were presented to local bicycle clubs, commuters and advocacy group 1304bikes.org.
You can view the entire Powerpoint on their website to see the Comprehensive Plan Presentation.
