A Bicycle Action Committee was formed as a subcommittee
of the Miami Green Commission and was tasked with
forming policies related to the inclusion of bicycle
friendly infrastructure, events, education, etc. The
Bicycle Action Committee was comprised of residents,
commuter cyclists, business owners, Miami-Dade Bicycle
Coordinator, Miami-Dade Public Works, and various
department representatives from the City of Miami. Over
6 months a short range list of priorities and basic
mapping of primary bicycle routes were identified and
composed into the Bicycle Action Plan.
On October 16, 2008,
the Miami City Commission unanimously adopted the City's
first ever Bicycle Action Plan. The Bicycle Action Plan
has helped to transform the City of Miami into a more
bicycle friendly city, through the designation of
primary routes and beginning a coordination of
infrastructure, development, and education. The Bicycle
Action Plan was developed as a short term list of goals
while developing a more comprehensive Bicycle Master
Plan of long term goals.
The Bicycle Action Plan includes a proposed primary and
secondary bicycle network to create a series of
connected bicycle safe routes. The proposed network
provides a combination of bike lanes, greenways,
shared routes, and neighborhood signed routes. The
current map serves as a basis for the planned
Bicycle Master Plan network.
