Asheville On Bikes

AoB 2 the MPO ASAP

Asheville on Bikes,

Things move quickly in the transportation world, or at least they could, especially if our community invests in multimodal infrastructure. Today is an important day to make an investment in developing city transportation infrastructure that works for all.

AoB just found out that public comment concerning multimodal infrastructure projects closes today at 5pm. Please take a moment to send your support for the following projects.

Feel free to cut and paste AoB’s message to the MPO and e-mail it to mpo@landofsky.org

“It’s a positive step when government agencies support advancing multimodal infrastructure. Walking, transit and bicycling improve the health of citizens and the vibrancy of the local economy. I support the following projects:

South Slope Network:

Install a connected network of bike lanes on Coxe, Asheland, Hilliard, and MLK Jr. Blvd.

and

Coxe Avenue:

Bicycle infrastructure along the entire .6 mile length of Coxe Avenue.”

If you’re able to stop by the public hearing, please do so. Details below:

There will be a public hearing on the draft STP-DA funding list at 12:10 p.m. on Thursday, June 18th, at the FBRMPO Transportation Advisory Committee meeting in the conference room of the Land-of-Sky Regional Council, 339 New Leicester Hwy, Suite 140, Asheville, NC 28806.

Respectfully,

Asheville on Bikes
