The Roanoke Valley Transportation Planning Organization aims to improve the mobility, accessibility, and safety of all non-motorized users in the valley through infrastructure, policy, and education.
Active Transportation is supported through: regional planning efforts such as the regional Active Transportation Plan; serving as the regional database for bicycling and pedestrian infrastructure and the regional on-road bicycle and pedestrian count program; and guiding funding towards projects such as greenways and sidewalk connections. This program fosters collaboration among localities when implementing bicycling and pedestrian facilities, and supports localities with studies, data, and best practices.
These efforts significantly contribute to promoting sustainable, healthy transportation options, fostering environmental sustainability, and improving access, connectivity, and overall quality of life within the community.
