Hello All,

 

Just an update here. I attended the March 7th City Commission to speak on behalf of all bicyclists in favor of the adoption of the Non-Motorized Transportation Plan for Battle Creek. While I was the only citizen there that spoke, I'm quite certain I swayed the commission, who moments later voted unanimously to adopt it.

 

Secondly, Nelson Karre and I spoke on behalf of the adoption of the Riverside Road project to include bike lanes, and a 4.5' sidewalk from Columbia to Beckley road. There was no one there to speak against the project. Although this project is not yet fully funded, it was approved 7 to 1 by the commission. It will be done in three phases and should start later this year.

 

Randy
