The project is comprised of three phases. The first phase is underway moving through spring 2025 and includes identifying existing active transportation condi- tions on state roads, such as presence of bicycle lanes, shared use paths, and side- walks; assessing the state's existing active transportation programs; and determining the statewide active transportation needs. The second phase includes development of proposed active transportation infrastructure improvements, prioritization of projects and potential funding sources, and recommendations for programs or poli- cies that can improve conditions for active transportation. This phase will continue through fall 2025, culminating in the third phase of publishing the Active Transpor- tation Plan in 2026. Public outreach will be conducted at all three phases to engage communities and gather feedback to inform the plan.
