PAST ENGAGEMENT EVENTS

Summer 2023 - Phase 3:

Check out the draft Bike Plan, revised Bike Network webmap, and priority projects. The public comment period was open from June 19 to July 16, 2023.

View the recording of the meeting from Thursday, June 22, 2023, to hear more about the project, how it has evolved, and what comes next. Resdents were asked to comment on the draft plan and network through an online survey. A scavenger hunt was created around the priority projects and residents were encouraged to submit photos of themselves on bike around Dallas for a chance to win a gift card provided by sponsors.

Fall 2022 - Phase 2:

Check out the Proposed Bike Network webmap to review the proposed network and public comments received for this phase of the engagement! The public comment period was open from October 19 to November 13, 2022. 

There were many comments on:

• Network connectivity
• Separated bike lane maintenance (sweeping and separator device)
• Preference for more separation with sturdy devices types including concrete

The City hosted a series of seven fun, interactive events across the city. The events were co-hosted with the Planning & Urban Design Department, and participants were able to learn about the ForwardDallas Land Use Plan update as well as provide comments on the proposed bicycle network.
