So thousands of maps were removed and destroyed, leaving a large gap in public information about the best roads for cycling in Pierce County. For a time, it appeared that Pierce County would have no bike map while King, Thurston and Snohomish counties would continue to have their maps available. Hamashima said a $40,000 grant from the Puget Sound Regional Council will pay for the new map. He said somewhere between 25,000 and 100,000 copies will be printed. “While we want to make sure that enough copies are printed to meet demand,” he noted, “we also would like to be mindful of not printing too Jerry Larson AKA Captain 2-wheeler and Foothills Trail many copies and wasting paper.” Coalition President Buzz Grant flank happy bicycle winner Shawn Phelps, a senior transportation planner for the Stephanie Lachman. county, will also work on the map.

No doubt America is a litigious society, and not all lawsuits make sense. But at least the county has recognized that a well-prepared bike map that lays out the safest and most advantageous road routes -- even if actual road conditions are not perfect -- makes a greater contribution to public safety than not having one.
