Strategic Plan for Sidewalks & Bikeways

March 2003


The Strategic Plan for Sidewalks and Bikeways is available below. We have broken the plan into its individual chapters so that it will be easier to download. However, some of these files are still substantial in size and will take some time to download over a standard 56k modem connection. The file sizes are noted at each link.

Please note: These files are posted in Adobe Acrobat format. This means that you will need the free Adobe Acrobat Reader which can be downloaded here.
