Chatham County's Non-motorized Transportation Plan: We need your feedback! Only one more day remains for submitting bicycle and pedestrian surveys to guide the development of the CORE MPO Non-motorized Transportation Plan! Surveys close at 11:45 p.m. on July 22. Development of the plan will occur over the next year, with opportunities for feedback at later stages. Survey on Bicycle Planning: http://www.zoomerang.com/Survey/WEB22AQQFQW5QU Survey on Pedestrian Planning: http://www.zoomerang.com/Survey/WEB22AQTJUY29K The Non-motorized Transportation Plan will identify projects and policies that are needed to encourage walking, bicycling, and other self-powered methods of transportation. Types of projects included in the plan may be facilities such as sidewalks, bike lanes, or multi-use paths, but may also be streetscaping or other amenities to create a more human-scaled environment in certain areas. Learn more about the Non-motorized Transportation Plan at: http://www.thempc.org/Transportation/Non-motorTranspPlan.html. In addition to online participation opportunities, Chatham County residents may contact Jane Love, MPC Transportation Planner, to share comments, even after the surveys close (912-651-1443).
