| Description | The Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) is developing district bicycle plans for the Bryan, Laredo, Pharr, and San Antonio districts. The State of Texas’ on-system transportation network – roads owned, operated, and managed by TxDOT – connects communities, regions, and destinations within and outside of Texas. While many bikeways are planned and funded at the local level, TxDOT works with local communities to develop bikeway networks integrated with the state system to improve safety, connectivity, and access within and between TxDOT districts. Developing a regional framework is vital as the state works to provide safe, thoughtfully designed, well-maintained facilities for bicyclists within each district and between districts, providing connectivity across the state. This is the next step for the state to plan more effectively for this mode of travel and develop an approach that can be applied across Texas. The plan analyzes the needs for bicycle infrastructure on the state highway system, prioritizes locations for bicycling improvements, and identifies what role different routes should play in the bicycling network. It also incorporates the public and stakeholder feedback received. |
| Purpose | TxDOT encourages participants to provide input on the Bryan, Laredo, Pharr, and San Antonio district bicycle plans. |
| Accessibility | The project materials are written in English. If you need an interpreter or document translator because English is not your primary language or you have difficulty communicating effectively in English, one will be provided to you. If you have a disability and need assistance, special arrangements can be made to accommodate most needs. If you need interpretation or translation services or you are a person with a disability who requires an accommodation to review the project materials or submit information, please contact Greg Reininger, TxDOT Bicycle & Pedestrian Planner at (737) 285-6184 no later than 4 p.m. CT, at least three business days before the date on which you would like to review the project materials or submit information.
