Safe Routes to Parks: Bike Jeffco, Wheat Ridge AT-ATs, and City Coalition
About the Project
Bike Jeffco, the Wheat Ridge Active Transportation Advisory Team, and the City are collaborating on the 2024 Safe Routes to Parks Activating Communities Program. During this nine-month program, the Safe Routes Partnership will work with the coalition to provide technical assistance and analysis that will lead to recommendations aimed to improve pedestrian and cyclist travel to local parks and green spaces. This work is partly informed by the Let's Talk program, the Bike/Ped Master Plan, the Open Space Management Plan, and sub-area plans like the recent 44th Ave Sub-Area Plan. There will be opportunities for public engagement on the current state of routes to parks in Wheat Ridge, deciding on an early implementation activity to complete, and completing an Action Plan for future work.
