Dear BIG Members,

The Greensboro Urban Area Metropolitan Planning Organization and the
City of Greensboro Parks and Recreation Department are pleased to
announce the launch of the "Greensboro Area Bicycle, Pedestrian, &
Greenways Master Plan."

A series of public workshops will be held throughout the area to
introduce this planning effort to the public and to receive initial
public input. These meetings are your opportunity to share your
knowledge of current deficiencies; your ideas and priorities for
near-term improvements and policies; and your vision for the future of
the area's bicycle, pedestrian, and trail system. Please attend and
help us plan for improving the safety and convenience of bicycling and
walking, as forms of transportation, recreation, and fitness, throughout
the Greensboro Metropolitan Area!
