FHWA just published the Small Town and Rural Multimodal Networks on the Bicycle and Pedestrian Program website. This resource will help small towns and rural communities support safe, accessible, comfortable, and active travel for people of all ages and abilities. It will provide a bridge between existing guidance on bicycle and pedestrian design and rural practice, encourage innovation in the development of safe and appealing networks for bicycling and walking, and show examples of project implementation.
The Local Highway Technical Assistance Council (LHTAC) provides an important linkage between Local Highway Jurisdictions (LHJs) and the Idaho Transportation Department (ITD) in the utilization of Federal-aid highway funds available to the LHJs in Idaho. These quarterly progress reports include the status listing of current and upcoming LHTAC projects for each district.
HB312 directed LHTAC to submit an annual report informing the legislature on the use of the money and ongoing maintenance funding needs on the local system.
