2009 Oahu Bike Plan available online for viewing, comment


Advertiser Staff

The 2009 Oahu Bike Plan has been released by the city and is now available online for public review and comment.

The plan can be found at www.oahubikeplan.org.
The new plan, an update of the 1999 plan, covers all of Oahu and guides future planning to better integrate bicycling into the island's transportation system.
The updated plan inventories and assesses current conditions as well as identifies new routes and priorities.
Ensuring bike-accessible transit stations is a new component of the 2009 plan.
Included are bikeway projects deemed essential for a fully integrated bikeway network, as well as other programs and policies that would help promote bicycling as a transportation mode.
Comments may be submitted through Aug. 31 to info@oahubikeplan.org.
People may also submit comments by mail to Oahu Bike Plan, c/o Helber Hastert & Fee, 733 Bishop St. Suite 2590, Honolulu, HI 96813.
A timeline calls for the plan to be completed by October.
