Lane County has created its first Bicycle Master Plan (BMP) for making bicycling a viable transportation option in rural Lane County. The plan is the outcome of a two-year process involving technical analysis of safety, demand, and equity data as well as extensive public involvement from online comment maps, surveys, interviews, and public meetings.
Following the public hearing on October 11, 2022, the Lane County Board of County Commissioners unanimously approved the adoption package of the Bicycle Network Map, Project List and Policy Amendments of the Bicycle Master Plan into the Lane County Transportation System Plan. This means Lane County has the policy and investment guidance to advocate for implementation funding and to work toward a safer transportation system for everyone, especially people bicycling in rural Lane County.
An overview of the BMP is here.
