CycleCT represents the implementation phase of the Township's Bike and Pedestrian Connections Plan adopted in 2010, to help make the vision of a community where all residents can commute and bike safely a reality and achieve the goals of promoting non-motorized transit use and accessibility, and establishing meaningful connections to activity nodes such as employment, shopping, schools, and recreational areas.
By constructing a network consisting of shared roadways, bike lanes, and interconnected trails; CycleCT will help to further create a healthier, more sustainable, and more active Cranberry Township. |
