Share your input on the plan for Bike Highways in the Bay Area
Caltrans Bay Area (District 4) has undertaken the Caltrans Bay Area Bike Highway Study to understand where Bike Highways may be installed alongside State 
Highway corridors. They are seeking public input on which features will make bike highways safe and easy to use. There are several ways to get involved: share your feedback in a brief survey or at an upcoming virtual event (coming soon!).
What is a bike highway?
Caltrans Bay Area is defining bike highways as bicycle facilities that:
● Allow for long-distance bicycle travel
● Enable uninterrupted bicycle travel (e.g. few stoplights or intersection crossings)
● Reduce physical barriers to destinations that people want to travel to and from
They note that these facilities may include a mix of bike paths on existing streets and fully-separated trails, and will be designed to accommodate people of all ages and bike-riding abilities, as well as people walking and rolling (such as using mobility devices or on electric scooters and skateboards), where possible.
