Roseville Public Works, Environment and Transportation Commission <br />Agenda Item <br />DATE: April 23, 2024 ITEM: 8.a. <br />ITEM DESCRIPTION: Bike Plan Update <br />Background <br />Roseville was awarded an Active Transportation Planning Assistance grant from MnDOT that Roseville will <br />use to create a bike plan that complements our existing Pathway Master Plan. We held our committee <br />kickoff meeting on April 15, 2024, with staff from Roseville, Ramsey County, MnDOT, Roseville Area <br />Schools, a Roseville Parks & Rec Commissioner, an active Roseville resident, and PWET Commission <br />Chair Bryant Ficek. <br />We are developing the engagement plan and will bring more updates to the PWET Commission throughout <br />the process. At this stage in the process, we would most like the Commission's input on the bullets below. In <br />addition, please share any ideas or questions throughout the process with Jennifer Lowry. <br />1. Are there any gaps in our stated goals shown below? <br />a. All Ages and Abilities: Creates a safe, comfortable and convenient network that prioritizes the <br />most vulnerable roadway users, improving community access and safety. <br />b. Health and Well-being: Encourages a healthy active lifestyle for residents, improving community <br />health outcomes. <br />c. Transportation Choice: Increases bicycle trips and connections to transit, reducing automobile <br />trips. <br />1. Are there specific measures of success for the development and/or implementation of the Bike Plan <br />we should consider? <br />2. We are working with Roseville Communication to identify individuals, groups and events where we <br />can connect with the public regarding the Bike Plan. Do you have suggestions? <br />3. June 10-12, 2024, we have tentatively scheduled a Bike Summit to include a bike ride audit to <br />experience biking in Roseville first-hand, a network mapping workshop, and a demonstration <br />concept workshop. If you are interested in helping to facilitate or plan any of these, especially the <br />bike ride audit, please let us know. <br />In addition, a new website has been launched that includes a survey, an interactive map, and a way to <br />subscribe for updates. The survey will close May 20, 2024. Please share this link with your networks. <br />https://talk.dot.state.mn.us/roseville-bike-plan <br />Recommendation <br />Receive update and provide feedback to staff. <br />Attachments <br />None <br />Page 51 of 69 <br />
