Maps

The active transportation maps provide the designated layers for different modes. Each map identifies current and future planned connections that will allow travel by different modes to major destinations. The maps communicate to a wide variety of stakeholders where proposed network connections are needed. This helps ensure that important network links are not overlooked as opportunities to improve the roadway arise.

Guide to Using Maps

  • You can zoom in and out of the map using the plus and minus symbols on the map, or using the wheel on your mouse. You can also pan left or right by holding the left mouse button down and sliding the mouse.

Pedestrian and Bicycle Transportation Planning

MRCOG provides data and planning assistance to local governments for bikeway and pedestrian projects. However, local governments are responsible for determining which projects they will implement in the near and long-term. These projects are included in the 2040 Metropolitan Transportation Plan. In the near-term, every two years, local governments apply for federal funding to implement new or recurring transportation projects. The Project Prioritization Process helps inform which of these projects receive funds and becoming part of the Transportation Improvement Program.
