MoBikeFed's Current Email Campaigns
Send an email message in support of these issues in as little as two minutes:
Advocacy:
Paseo Bridge Bike/Ped Access: MoDOT is building a new quarter billion dollar bridge in the heart of Kansas City. It could provide the first safe bicycle/pedestrian crossing of the Missouri River near downtown Kansas City. We've been working on this for years and now it's going to move or die forever in the next month or so.
Advocacy:
Hwy 45 Bike/Ped Access: MoDOT is building a new highway through Parkville, Missouri. Guess what--their plans for accommodating bicycling and walking are inadequate, plus they forgot to include any funding for them.
Advocacy:
Bicycling License Plate: Many other states have 'Share the Road with Bicycles' license plates. Why not Missouri, too? In 1 minute you can show your support.

Raytown, MO, forming bike/ped advisory committee
Thursday, January 30, 2003
Raytown, Missouri, is forming a bike/ped advisory committee as part of its plan to create a city-wide bike/ped plan. The bicycle part of the plan is to create an on-street network of bicycle routes on approximately a 1/2-mile square grid (ie, every Raytown resident will be within 1/4 mile of a bike route), and to develop and create multi-use paths wherever possible.

If you are interested in being a part of the committee, or just in being informed of developments, please email Brent Hugh (bhugh@mwsc.edu).
