Bike and Pedestrian Master Plan

Share on Facebook Share on Twitter Share on Linkedin Email this link

Parker Town Council passed a resolution to adopt the Bike and Pedestrian Master Plan as part of the Town’s Transportation Master Plan on July 17, 2023. The Transportation Master Plan was adopted in 2014 and incorporates prior transportation-related plans such as the 2005 Bike Lane Plan and the 2010 Open Space, Trails and Greenways Master Plan. The Bike and Pedestrian Master Plan updates these prior plans and serves as the Town’s policy document for future bike and pedestrian mobility while serving as a road map to promote a safe, comfortable and well-connected bike and pedestrian network.

The adopted Plan is available in the "Documents" section of this project page.

Thank you to all residents who contributed their feedback to this project!


Project Overview

Bicycling and walking are not only great recreational pastimes, but are also important means of travel for many people in Colorado communities – including Parker. The Town of Parker continually plans for diverse transportation options including bicycling, walking, public transit and automobiles. The Bike and Pedestrian Master Plan (the ‘Plan’) will serve as the Town’s policy document and ‘road map’ to support safe, comfortable and connected bike and pedestrian infrastructure.

The Plan will be developed as a supplement to the Town of Parker Transportation Master Plan. The new plan will also incorporate the Town’s current Bike Lane Plan and include recommendations to develop a consolidated bike and pedestrian master plan that creates a cohesive Townwide bicycle and pedestrian network for all users.

The Town invites you to join your neighbors and Town staff to help inform and shape the Plan! Please participate by: using our interactive map tool, leave a comment, read the adoption draft (now available for review and public comment using the "Ideas" tab) or just following the progress of the Plan.
