City of Chicago Streets for Cycling 2020 spring public meetings
The City of Chicago has scheduled a series of meetings and webinars to review and discuss a draft network for future bikeway facilities, remaining challenges, and next steps.
The purpose of the Streets for Cycling Plan 2020 is to identify locations for up to 250 miles of traditional and innovative bicycle facilities that will encourage all Chicagoans to use their bikes to get around their neighborhoods. You can read more about the plan's benchmarks and goals online. The Streets for Cycling 2020 plan received $32M from CMAP’s Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality (CMAQ) program.
