Austin District Bicycle Plan
TxDOT works with the community to accommodate bicycle transportation across the state. The bicycle plan will help connect bicycle networks across all 11 counties in the Austin District by identifying opportunities for collaboration and coordination of improvements. By tying together state and local plans and guidance, the district's bike plan will provide roadway designers with tools to identify key opportunities to optimize individual projects within the broader context of a safe and connected regional bicycle network.
The completed bicycle plan will:
- provide a comprehensive evaluation of existing conditions for cycling across the district
- prioritize corridors that offer potential opportunities for benefits
- address barriers to the cycling community
The resulting plan is expected to create a framework to characterize future projects to provide an appropriate level of accommodation for safe and accessible bicycle travel within the constraints of today’s funding environment.
