Bicycle and Pedestrian Action Plan

The Future of Walking and Biking in Culver City.

Purpose

The 2020 Bicycle and Pedestrian Action Plan (Plan) establishes a long-term vision for improving walking and bicycling in Culver City, building upon a long- standing effort to make Culver City a place known for its extensive bicycle and pedestrian network and as an active, healthy place to live, work, and play.

The Bicycle and Pedestrian Action Plan updates the previous Bicycle and Pedestrian Master Plan adopted by the City Council in 2010 and seeks to ensure comfortable, safe, and attractive places to bike and walk, so that these forms of active transportation become first choices for travelling around our city. 

The Plan includes an inventory of the City’s current bicycle and pedestrian network and provides new and updated infrastructure, program, and policy recommendations to encourage bicycling and walking. These recommendations take advantage of new, innovative solutions to guide City staff in prioritizing resources when implementing future projects and programs. The Plan will also assist the City in its efforts to secure grants and other outside funding for these pursuits.
