BIKEWAY PLANNING, THE NEW YORK EXPERIENCE

Multi-related factors prerequisite to a viable bikeway development program must be innovative, creative, imaginative, while being cognizant and responsive to related human factors and funding availability. Within the bikeway development process, there are two major dimensions considered (1) the human dimension and (2) the retooling technology dimension. In New York a three stage bikeway planning program is being developed: (1) upgrade existing bikeway facilities, (2) connect existing bikeway facilities into a system, and (3) include bikeway facilities, as part of new federal transportation program. /TRRL/
