Regional Bicycle Plan
In early 2007, MAPC released the Regional Bicycle Plan, which offers strategies to increase the number of bicyclists in the region while making bicycling safer and easier. The plan, which is grounded in the Boston Region Metropolitan Planning Organization’s (MPO) and MAPC’s policies to support bicycle and pedestrian transportation, reviews goals set in previous bicycle plans, evaluates progress in achieving those goals, and proposes six general goals and strategies for the region.
