Lewes Bike Plan
Lewes Bike Plan
The Lewes Bike Plan seeks to create a community that encourages walking and bicycling for fun, errands, and commuting. All who live, work, or visit Lewes should have access to a bicycle and pedestrian network that is safe and comfortable for all ages and abilities, is clearly identified, and provides amenities throughout its use. This network will provide connections to popular destinations within and outside of town limits, resulting in a thriving, healthy community.
