Developing Effective Active Transportation Projects and Programs

Support for Smaller Agencies and Disadvantaged Communities

These materials were developed in a collaborative effort by Caltrans, the Local Government Commission, California Bicycle Coalition, California Walks, and Rails to Trails Conservancy as part of a workshop series conducted to help provide technical assistance to smaller agencies and disadvantaged communities to support the development of impactful active transportation plans, programs and projects that can successfully compete for ATP funding. The focus of these materials is on the elements that make for a high-quality bicycle or pedestrian plan, project, or program.
