Bicycle Facility Implementation - Quick Reference Guide

Summary:

A new reference guide gives local road agency planners and designers quick access to the design manuals and guides that can help them decide what bicycle facilities to select for their roadways and how best to design them. A supplement to the MnDOT Bicycle Facility Design Manual, the quick reference guide was developed in close cooperation with Local Road Research Board (LRRB) and MnDOT experts to answer the questions city and county agencies have about facility selection and design. Based on information from 46 cities and counties in Minnesota, the guide offers lists and links to 36 resources and answers a detailed list of frequently asked questions.
