Kansas City has come a long way since a 2006 designation as the nation’s worst city for bicycling.
Deb Ridgway, city bicycling and pedestrian coordinator, reported progress and plans today to the city council transportation and infrastructure committee.
It has gone from six miles of bike lanes to 38 miles, and now has 292 signed bike routes, more than 12 miles of sharrows (shared lanes) and 72 miles of trails. . . .
A new bike master plan is to come out within months, Ridgway said, and the city is more than a third on the way to completing its plan for a 600-mile biking system.
