Linwood Bicycle and Pedestrian Plan

There will be a public meeting about the Linwood Bicycle and Pedestrian Plan 4-7 p.m. Tuesday, Nov. 29 at the Linwood City Hall, 400 Poplar Ave.

The plan is being prepared by the consulting firm Michael Baker Jr. Inc. and is sponsored by the New Jersey Department of Transportation. It is intended to promote bicycle and pedestrian accessibility, mobility and safety in the community. Preliminary recommendations for bicycle and pedestrian improvements will be presented.

Recommendations include plans to extend the Linwood bike path to connect with commercial centers and residential neighborhoods. Additionally, Linwood would improve the bike path while also making changes to streets in order to provide for bike lanes and sidewalk installation to improve pedestrian safety.

Members of the public can stop by at any point from 4-7 p.m. to review recommendations and ask questions of the study team.
