  • Miami Valley Cycling Summit Communities Directory
    MIAMI VALLEY CYCLING SUMMIT COMMUNITIES DIRECTORY 1.1. INTRODUCTION This Cycling Directory provides a review and assessment of existing bicycle facilities in the Miami Valley Region and the organizations that help make the facilities possible. The directory defines various bicycle infrastructure types, including on- and off-street facilities. A discussion of the existing bikeway system follows with a review of facilities in each of the four counties in the Region. The directory takes a look at other bicycle infrastructure components, including signage, end-of-trip facilities, and multi-modal connections, and then briefly summarizes existing programmatic efforts to encourage bicycling. 1.2. EXISTING BIKEWAYS The following sections describe existing bikeways in the Miami Valley region, discussing statewide and regional bikeways followed by an overview of bikeways within each of the Counties in the Region. Shared use paths comprise the vast majority of the Region’s existing bikeway network. The Miami Valley benefits from a comprehensive and generally well-connected trail system that has developed over time. In response to the devastating 1913 floods, the Miami Conservancy District (MCD) was formed and charged with developing a flood control system. The flood control channels along the Great Miami River and other waterway corridors now carry an extensive trail system. In 1978, the first eight-mile trail loop was developed in downtown Dayton, and today, the area boasts over 200 miles of trails. 1.2.1. NATIONAL AND STATEWIDE TRAILS IN THE MIAMI VALLEY Portions of the Miami Valley’s bikeway system serve as elements of designated national trails, described below. NORTH COUNTRY NATIONAL SCENIC TRAIL Officially designated in 1980, the North Country National Scenic Trail passes through seven states, including North Dakota, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and New York.

  • OKI Regional Bicycle Plan Is a Component of the Region’S Multi-Modal Regional Transportation Plan
    OHIO-KENTUCKY-INDIANA REGIONAL COUNCIL OF GOVERNMENTS (OKI) REGIONAL BICYCLE PLAN EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The OKI Regional Bicycle Plan is a component of the region’s multi-modal Regional Transportation Plan. The Regional Transportation Plan contains a summary of the existing bicycle facilities and of the recommendations for improving cycling conditions in the region. Towards this end, it is the vision of the Regional Bicycle Plan that vehicular travel by bicycle become an integral mode of travel, both by its inclusion in OKI’s regional transportation planning process, and by its consideration as a choice for trip-making by residents of the OKI region. The goals of the plan are stated as follows: GOAL 1: Develop a regional bicycle system that is integrated with other transportation systems. GOAL 2: Promote an active and supportive bicycle culture in the Cincinnati region. GOAL 3: Secure adequate funding for bicycle improvements in the region. GOAL 4: Encourage and support bicycle safety, education and enforcement programs. A recognized guide for the design of bicycle facilities is published by the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials. This guide contains the statement that “The majority of bicycling will take place on ordinary roads with no dedicated space for bicycles.” It further states that “All highways, except those where bicyclists are legally prohibited, should be designed and constructed under the assumption that they will be used by bicyclists”. Consequently, many of the recommendations of this plan are oriented toward improving the region’s road system so that the streets can more safely be shared by bicycles and motor vehicles.

  • Cross-Country Route Assessment for the Great American Rail-Trail
    Great American Rail-Trail More Than 3,700 Miles Between Washington, DC., and Washington State Washington, D.C. When Rails-to-Trails Conservancy (RTC) was founded in 1986, just a handful of rail-trails dotted the landscape. Today, there are more than 23,000 miles of rail-trails crisscrossing the countryside and another 8,000 miles of rail-trails ready to be built—making the Great American Rail-Trail viable for the first time. Analyses implemented in the past few years of open rail-trails and out-of-service rail corridors show the potential to build a rail-trail that spans from Washington to Washington. Hundreds of conversations with state agencies and local trail managers confirm that this is a realistic pursuit. For more information, visit: Existing Trails This map shows the preferred route of the Great American Rail-Trail, greatamericanrailtrail.org. Trail Gaps including the 130 rail-trails, greenways and other multiuse paths that make Planned Segments the route more than 52% complete. The trail gaps that will connect those Unplanned Segments existing trails are divided into two categories: planned segments, with specific routes that are already identified for completion; and unplanned segments, where potential routes are identified and planning work is ongoing to confirm specific routes. ACKNOWLEDGMENTS This report, Great American Rail-Trail Route Assessment, was published by Rails-to-Trails Conservancy (RTC) in May 2019.
