Bikeways Master PlanA bikeways plan focuses on special provisions for bicycle facilities, which will encourage bicycle use by all ages on the road system. The Inyo County Collaborative Bikeways Plan will be the official Bicycle Transportation Plan of the County of Inyo, City of Bishop, and Bishop Paiute Tribe.
One of the
goals in the General Plan for the County of Inyo is: The California Department of Transportation "Highway Design Manual" provides a discussion of the role of bikeways: Bikeways are one element of an effort to improve bicycling
safety and convenience which, when added to maintenance and support
facilities, either help accommodate motor vehicle traffic and
bicycle traffic on shared roadways, or compliment the road system to
meet needs not adequately met by roads alone. Off street bikeways in exclusive
corridors can be effective in providing new recreational
opportunities, or in some instances, desirable commuter routes. They
can also be used to close gaps where barriers exist to bicycle
travel. |
