Lane County is developing its first ever Bicycle Master Plan (BMP) with the vision to make bicycling a viable regional transportation option throughout Lane County for people of all ages and abilities, linking communities to destinations and services, and connecting where we live, work, and play.
This effort focuses on Lane County’s rural roads and its paved paths outside of the Eugene-Springfield urban area. As an amendment to the Lane County Transportation System Plan, the BMP will go before the Lane County Board of Commissioners for adoption with recommendations to improve the:
SAFETY AND COMFORT for people who bike and all roadway users.
CONNECTIVITY of regional bicycling between rural communities and the urban area.
EQUITY of access to convenient, safe, and affordable means of transportation.
ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT opportunities for bicycle tourism related businesses.
PUBLIC HEALTH benefits from expanded active transportation.
