The Alachua County Bicycle-Pedestrian Master Plan open house to present and receive community input is slated for Wednesday, April 15, at the UF/IFAS Extension Alachua County Office in Newberry.
The meeting will run from 5 to 7 p.m. at 22712 W. Newberry Rd., with Alachua County, in collaboration with the University of Florida and the city of Gainesville, hosting the event.
RSVP to the event on Facebook.
Those who cannot attend the open house but want to share input can visit the project website and provide comments on the web map.
The open house will present draft prioritized bicycle and pedestrian projects, along with other supportive policies and programs, all intended to make biking and walking safe, attractive, and comfortable choices for residents of Alachua County, according to a county press release. The plan is informed by significant community engagement, which included two previous community meetings, multiple other ‘pop-up’ engagement events, an interactive web-map and an online survey.
This is the third and final public meeting planned for this important project.
