BACKGROUND
The Napa Valley Transportation Authority (NVTA) is leading the effort to create a Countywide Active Transportation Plan to help guide future investments in active transportation infrastructure and programs throughout Napa County communities. The Plan seeks to create a connected regional network of bicycle and pedestrian facilities to make Napa County a safer and more accessible community for all ages and abilities. NVTA has conducted extensive public engagement on the Plan, including numerous in-person and online presentations, forums, and pop-up events.
Napa County staff have provided comments and direction on key documents and materials that will be included in the final Plan and will ask the Board to approve the Plan at a future meeting. NVTA staff asked to update the Board on the status of the Plan and obtain feedback for improving walking and biking in Napa County.
Additional information about the Plan, including draft maps of proposed walking and biking improvements, are online at www.NapaATplan.org <http://www.NapaATplan.org>.
