Active Mobility Plan - Survey #2

Project Background

Raleigh’s Active Mobility Plan (AMP) is a community-driven update to the 2016 BikeRaleigh Plan and 2013 Comprehensive Pedestrian Plan. This city-wide planning effort will refine active mobility networks and prioritize project that will create safe and comfortable choices for walking, biking, and rolling across the City. Key elements of the AMP include:

City-wide network recommendations
Program and policy opportunities
Implementation strategies

The following are questions related to the proposed bikeway and sidewalk networks that can increase safety, comfort, and access. Additionally, this survey is asking for feedback on the process for implementation of the AMP network recommendations, including future project engagement and strategies for projects to be constructed.

This survey will be open through Friday, July 11, 2025. Thank you for your time and we appreciate your input.
