Enhancing Community Mobility With Bicycle and Pedestrian Initiatives

The Bicycle and Pedestrian Planning program at RVARC, integrated within the Roanoke Valley Transportation Planning Organization, is a vital initiative aimed at enhancing non-motorized transportation across the Roanoke Valley. It is centered on the development of comprehensive bikeway and pedestrian plans, incorporating thorough safety and accessibility studies to upgrade the infrastructure for cyclists and pedestrians alike. Key to this program is an interactive bicycle map, offering critical insights into cycling routes and infrastructure details. Such efforts significantly contribute to promoting sustainable, healthy transportation options, fostering environmental sustainability, and improving the connectivity and overall quality of life within the community.
