BIKE WALK TWIN CITIES
Bike Walk Twin Cities is a federally-funded initiative to increase biking and walking, and reduce driving in Minneapolis and neighboring communities. Working with local governments, businesses, organizations and residents, the initiative provides public education and allocates funds for safer crosswalks, bike lanes and other improvements. Transit for Livable Communities is designated by federal law to administer the $21.5 million Bike Walk Twin Cities initiative.
Who's Involved?
The Board of Directors of Transit for Livable Communities is the decision-making entity for the program in Minneapolis/bordering communities. Transit for Livable Communities is working closely with its agency partners: the Federal Highway Administration, the Minnesota Department of Transportation, and the Metropolitan Council.
The Board also established an advisory committee to advise it on implementation of the program. The committee includes representatives from neighborhood organizations, non-profits, small businesses, citizen activists, elected officials, and agency partners.
