Fort Wayne Mayor Tom Henry announced today he will hold a community bike summit March 21 at the downtown branch of the Allen County Public Library to follow up on the more than 4,000 responses the City received from last fall’s bicycle use survey.
The summit will focus on public input for infrastructure planning, education strategies for drivers and cyclists, and legislative components related to bicycle transportation. City staff will use the information as it writes an in-house bicycle transportation plan. The need for a bicycle plan is outlined in Plan-It Allen, the joint City-County comprehensive plan approved in 2007.
The summit will be from 9 a.m. to approximately noon in the meeting rooms of the Allen County Public Library’s downtown branch. An expo of bicycle vendors, trail organizations and other entities will be in the library’s Great Hall from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. Both events are free to the public.
