The project is comprised of three phases. The first phase is underway moving through spring 2025 and includes identifying existing active transportation con- ditions on state roads, such as presence of bicycle lanes, shared use paths, and sidewalks; assessing the state's existing active transportation programs; and de- termining the statewide active transportation needs. The second phase includes development of proposed active transportation infrastructure improvements, pri- oritization of projects and potential funding sources, and recommendations for programs or policies that can improve conditions for active transportation. This phase will continue through fall 2025, culminating in the third phase of publish- ing the Active Transportation Plan in 2026.
