GCCMail: Your input on 16th Ave
james thompson 29 May 2010 11:39 EDT
Dear GCC,
The Public Works Department has scheduled a workshop with the Bicycle
and Pedestrian Advisory Board and the Gainesville Cycling Club to
discuss NW 16th Ave on June 7th at 5:30 PM downtown at the County
Administration building. I would like to attend the meeting with
anyone interested. If you can't come, I would be particularly
thankful of any input you have about the NW corridor improvements for
16th Ave. Last I checked, there were some good (expanded bike lanes)
and not so good (multi-use bike-ped sidewalks) options in the plan. I
am not a NW commuter, but I know many of you live NW and have
expressed interest in replacing some of your car miles with bike
miles, so this will affect you.
A brief summary of the project is here:

BPAB is a strong and vital input to local planning, so I suspect this
meeting will influence the outcome of any final decision.
Regards,
James Thompson
Advocacy Director
Gainesville Cycling Club
