Input sought for bicycling and pedestrian plan

The East-West Gateway Council of Governments is striving to improve conditions for bicycles and pedestrians across the region through its Bicycle and Pedestrian Program.

As part of the program, East-West Gateway has developed the St. Louis Regional Bicycling and Walking Transportation Plan. East-West Gateway is having a series of open houses from Feb. 15 though March 1 throughout the St. Louis area to discuss the plan and other transportation proposals.

I must admit that I've only had time to take a quick skim of the plan before making this post, but it does cover the priorities that East-West Gateway plans to use before it submits recommendations for state and federal grants for bicycle and pedestrian routes and paths in the St. Louis region. It also contains a list of funding sources and a good list of governmental contacts.

To learn more about the plan, visit the East-West Gateway's Bikeways page. There you can find links to various parts of the plan. To get a schedule of the open houses, open this PDF file.
