BICYCLE AND PEDESTRIAN PLANNING

Education

Share the Road Brochure:

 

Bike Safety:  Planning and surveys have revealed a significant lack of understanding throughout the region that bicycles are to follow the vehicle code and do, in fact, belong on the road. As a result, CRCOG developed a comprehensive Share the Road brochure, targeted to both motorists and cyclists.

The brochure is available below, or multiple copies can be requested from Sandy Fry by email or by calling her at 860-522-2217, x20. The brochure has been printed in both English and Spanish.  It is available in all Department of Motor Vehicle offices in the state and we welcome additional outlets for distribution. 

 

 
Workshops:


Bicycle/Pedestrian Design Workshop:  The Connecticut DOT is sponsoring a Bicycle/Pedestrian Design workshop April 23-24 in Norwalk, May 7-8 in Farmington and May 21-22 in Storrs.  This course is suitable for planners, engineers, and advocates.

The Initiative for Bicycle and Pedestrian Innovation's intensive course "Comprehensive Bicycle and Pedestrian Design and Planning" will be held this summer (August 3rd-8th). This week-long course will provide practitioners with the fundamentals of pedestrian and bicycle planning and design through an intensive week of classroom, field, and project experience. Registration is currently open. For more information visit the summer workshop website.
