Rhode Island Statewide Planning on bicycle and pedestrian safety

The City of East Providence, with assistance from the Rhode Island Division of Statewide Planning and consultant support from the Toole Design Group is currently Drafting a citywide Bicycle and Pedestrian Master Plan which will identify and address the significant need for multimodal connections throughout the city. Creating a Bicycle and Pedestrian Master Plan for East Providence is important for improving safety, intermodal connectivity, and addressing equity by prioritizing active transportation options within neighborhoods of all income types. Creating more walkable and bikeable neighborhoods also improves the quality of life for all residents, visitors, and people who work in the city, by activating neighborhood centers and creating vibrant public street life. The Plan will provide recommendations on where to add bicycle lanes, cross walks, sidewalks, bus shelters, and additional safety treatments. The Bicycle and Pedestrian Master Plan will advance mobility for all transportation users.
