Non-Motorized Plan
Federal metropolitan planning rules require that MPO plans address non-motorized users, and enhance the connectivity of the transportation system across and between modes. Currently, KMPO's long range plan has some information on non-motorized facilities, but is focused primarily on roadways. In KMPO's work plan for 2009, the KMPO Policy Board has authorized staff to improve the non-motorized plan for the region.
The plan will be a tool for local agencies. Goals for the plan include:
- Identify regional priorities and opportunities for improving biking, walking, and other forms of non-motorized transportation
- Identify funding sources
- Recommend policies, goals, and projects
