Title
Triangle Bikeway Study (15 minutes)
Dale McKeel, LPA
Narrative
The Triangle Bikeway project will study the idea of a 17-mile bicycle path. The bikeway will link Raleigh, Research Triangle Park (RTP), Durham and Chapel Hill along I-40 and NC 54. The current planning effort includes design and construction recommendations between Raleigh and RTP, and a corridor assessment for the connection west to Durham and Chapel Hill. The bikeway will connect Triangle communities making both short and long bike trips for work, play and daily errands possible. Ideas from residents will shape the plan. Agencies across the region are working together in the planning process, which will take approximately 18 months.
