  • Rockland Bike Planning Project

    The City of Rockland received a 2023 Community Action Grant to improve the accessibility of biking in Rockland.

    As part of this grant, the City is developing a network of bike routes that will connect community members to where they want to go. Low-cost roadway improvements such as signage, striping, and sharrows will be installed as part of this grant-funded project. See below for the project timeline and opportunities to provide input on the planning process.
