Be Part of Goleta’s Walking and Biking Future

Anyone interested can attend the Tuesday, April 3, evening City Council session which starts at 6:00 p.m. City staff and our consultants will provide an update on the Bicycle and Pedestrian Master Plan (BPMP) to Council. Please join us the following evening (April 4 from 5:30-7:00 p.m.) for a community workshop at the Goleta Valley Community Center (5679 Hollister Avenue). The workshop will review and allow for input on draft versions of chapters 1 – 4 of the plan (including an introduction to the project, existing conditions and analysis, public outreach and recommendations). There will also be a list of recommended policies and improvements for attendees to provide feedback on. Read chapters 1-4 before the meeting here.

The Bicycle and Pedestrian Master Plan is the future of biking and walking in Goleta. It aims to expand and improve the pedestrian and bicycle network in the City of Goleta making it easier to walk and bike around town. It also promotes public health by encouraging people to walk and bike, reduces automobile usage and fuel consumption, and promotes transportation equity. Learn more at http://tinyurl.com/GoletaBPMP.
