  • Trenton Citywide Bike Plan, Our Streets, Is Now Available

    supporting image

    With thirty percent of households in Trenton not owning a vehicle and 38 percent having only one vehicle, many residents rely on walking, biking, and taking transit to get to and from school, work, doctor appointments, and other places. To advance efforts to invest in supporting infrastructure, DVRPC partnered with the City of Trenton to create a citywide bike plan, Our Streets: A Trenton Bike Plan for All. The plan proposes adding bicycle facilities and making design changes on certain streets to increase safety for all road users—including bicyclists, skaters, scooters, pedestrians, transit riders, and drivers.

    The DVRPC project team analyzed existing conditions, including the city’s transportation network, land use, community populations, and potential bike trip-generating locations, to inform which streets should be prioritized for the addition of bike facilities. Roadway widths and public feedback were used to recommend specific types of bike facilities for specific segments of the city’s street network. To gather feedback on the proposed street design changes, the project team conducted robust community engagement that targeted residents who currently ride or would like to ride a bike and residents who have not previously engaged with the City. Learn more about the community engagement process.

    Following the analysis of existing conditions and public feedback, the project team developed a recommended bike network that is continuous, low-stress, and easily navigable for cyclists. The recommended bike network includes roadways with available or flexible space where bike facilities could be installed without altering curb lines or acquiring private property. Three types of bicycle facilities were recommended: one-way protected bike lanes, two-way protected cycle tracks, and neighborhood greenways. The Our Streets bike plan concludes with key next steps the City can take to make full plan implementation possible. These include leveraging existing projects for bike plan implementation, dedicating increased and sustained funding for implementation and maintenance, and increasing staff capacity to manage implementation.
