North Foothills Bikeway Community Advisory Committee Application

The North Foothills Bikeway will be a dedicated 11-mile biking and walking path along US 36 between Boulder and Lyons.
This road has more fatal crashes between cyclists and motorized vehicles than any other road in unincorporated Boulder County. A bikeway will greatly increase cycling safety and make it safer and easier to bike, walk, and connect to trails. The bikeway will mostly be on public land next to the road.
