Advance City Mobility (previously Establish Bike Lanes)

The City has applied for funding for seven Mobility Advancement Program (MAP, formerly known as Surtax) projects to enhance and rehabilitate our existing transportation and roadway infrastructure and pedestrian network, including Mobility Master Plan, Rehabilitation and Maintenance Projects, Alleyway Restoration, Emergency Traffic Signals, and Bus Shelter Replacements. This initiative will assist in funding the upfront (reimbursable) costs associated with the projects the City has either submitted or executed agreements with the County. Incorporation of bike lanes throughout the City will continue to be an important part of ongoing efforts to encourage and construct various modes of transportation. Throughout the next year, city staff will work to use approximately $600,000 in Mobility Advancement Program funds for bike lane planning to establish a comprehensive plan for adding sidewalks and various types of bike lanes citywide. Additional mobility advancement program funding will be available in subsequent years for design, followed by construction. Staff will also continue to work with the County and State to incorporate bike lanes whenever feasible and appropriate as other roadway improvements come online.
