Wood County Bicycle and Pedestrian Plan 2025

The Wood County Ad Hoc Bike & Pedestrian Committee is overseeing the development of the Wood County Bike & Pedestrian Plan.

The Wood County Bicycle & Pedestrian Plan includes:

An inventory of bicycling conditions and sidewalks, bicycle and pedestrian crashes with vehicles, and bicycle and pedestrian use areas. Researching where crashes occurred will show where some problem areas exist. Other problem locations will be found through analysis of the bicycling conditions on each major road.

Locations of potential bicycle routes and recommendations for roadway improvements. Maps will show where people are riding and where they plan to ride when it is safer to do so. Recommendation may include bicycle lanes in high traffic areas, and possibly no change along roads used more by bicyclists than vehicles (e.g. low volume roads).

Recommend solutions. The plan will include a combination of education, encouragement, engineering, and enforcement strategies to increase walking and biking.

Forest County Potawatomi Community Bicycle & Pedestrian Plan

With assistance from a WisDOT planning grant, the Forest County Potawatomi Community (FCPC) was able to develop a comprehensive bicycle and pedestrian plan to enhance the viability of bicycling and walking as forms of transportation throughout the Forest County Potawatomi Community. The planning project occurred from October 2019 and continued into
the Summer of 2021 with a signifi cant delay resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic. The process included data analysis, conceptual planning, public outreach, development of a preferred routing, and detailed cost estimating.

Adams County Bicycle & Pedestrian Plan Summary

The primary emphasis of the Adams County Bicycle And Pedestrian Plan is on developing a more bicycle friendly transportation system by establishing a facilities network and bringing all streets up to a minimum level of compatibility. Pedestrian accommodations are also reviewed and improvements are also suggested in this plan. Often the focus of a bicycle plan is solely on a network of improved roads and trails, but it is equally important to consider policies and practices.

Vilas County Bicycle and Pedestrian Plan 2011

This plan is intended to guide the development of an interconnected bikeway and pedestrian system for Vilas County, Wisconsin. The Vilas Area Silent Sports Association (VASSA), in conjunction with the local area trail groups around the County, prepared this plan to establish a fresh blueprint for its efforts and the efforts of other agencies and organizations with interest in trails and routes within the County. The trails and routes recommended within the plan will connect people to destinations such as employment centers, schools, residential districts, recreation areas and commercial retail areas (downtowns and surrounding shopping areas). This plan incorporates interconnection with neighboring communities and various destinations outside of the County.
