Proposed Bike Boulevards and Bike Lanes

What are Bike Boulevards?

A bike boulevard is a street that is optimized for cycling traffic while remaining accessible to motorized vehicles.

Official designations and road stenciling historically increase property values on bike boulevards.

By assigning and strictly enforcing lower speeds of 28 mph, bike boulevards are much safer for pedestrians and biking families; they also encourage cyclists of all skill levels to use bikes as a means of transportation.

Map

SHTN members have prepared a proposed map of bike boulevards and lanes for Saratoga Springs. The map is now open for public comment.
