Lake County Wants Bicyclists Input

Biking in Lake County!
Have you taken the survey?
Lake County wants to hear from residents about biking in Lake County.
The Lake County Division of Transportation is beginning a countywide Bike Path Wayfinding and Signage study. Ultimately the goal is to help the public using the bike paths have a better understanding of where they are on the trails and make it easier to find connecting destinations. Eventually this may lead to increased usage of the bike path network in Lake County and encourage people to get out of their cars and use non-motorized transportation options.
