Karl Frantz, and the rest of the Village of Shorewood Hills, should be given lots of credit for wanting to improve the connections in their jurisdiction, and encouraged to continue. They are thinking of some other significant improvements for bicyclists and pedestrians that potential new developments might just make possible sooner rather than later.
UW Transportation Services' Commuter Solutions unit has been offering our transportation planning skills to the Village of Shorewood Hills for about a year now. This helps to insure that connections to the campus are as safe and convenient as the bicycle facilities on campus (though there are still several places on campus where significant improvements need to be made that we are (slowly) working on). Working with other municipalities and government agencies to make better connections to and throughout the campus is consistent with Campus Master Plan adopted in 2005. http://www.uc.wisc.edu/masterplan/ Chuck Strawser Pedestrian & Bicycle Transportation Planner Commuter Solutions Transportation Services UW-Madison Room 124 WARF 610 Walnut St Madison WI 53726 608-263-2969 www.wisc.edu/trans -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] Sent: Friday, June 10, 2011 9:10 AM Subject: [Bikies] Shorewood Hills path re-opened and better than ever. The 'singularity' that inverted directions has been resolved. Two nice wide lanes, with 'sharrows', plus a sidewalk. thanks, VoSH! -darin _______________________________________________ Bikies mailing list [email protected] http://lists.danenet.org/listinfo.cgi/bikies-danenet.org _______________________________________________ Bikies mailing list [email protected] http://lists.danenet.org/listinfo.cgi/bikies-danenet.org
