Just like a land use or comprehensive plan, a bicycle and pedestrian plan serves as a guide to making a community a more bicycle and pedestrian friendly place as the community undergoes new development or re-development and reconstruction. A plan can vary from a brief strategic plan to guide a community on how and where to start their efforts, or a comprehensive master planning document with both short and long-term goals, community surveys, policy and facility recommendations, design guidelines, implementation and funding information, maps, education and outreach products.
The Bicycle Federation of Wisconsin has experience with writing plans at all levels of detail for both bicycle and pedestrian needs. We are experts in the latest state-of-the-art bicycle and pedestrian facilities and design, evaluating bicycle use and demand, and implementing successful education and encouragement programs.
