Bicycle Infrastructure
The City of Syracuse is committed to improving bike safety in our community with the addition of bike lanes. Benefits include slowing down traffic, connecting existing bike infrastructure to more neighborhoods, and increasing safety for bicyclists and pedestrians in the area. This work builds upon the Syracuse Bicycle Plan 2040.
The Syracuse Bicycle Plan 2040 is a component of Syracuse’s Comprehensive Plan 2040 adopted by the Common Council in 2005. This plan addresses both the justification for creating a bicycle network, as well as outlining how the City can expand its current system.
This page outlines the existing bike infrastructure and ongoing projects working to further the goals of the Syracuse Bicycle Plan.
