Project History: Planning Phase
The Triangle Bikeway Feasibility and Implementation study was completed in 2022. The bikeway corridor is planned to be approximately 23 miles connecting Chapel Hill, Research Triangle Park, and Raleigh. The bikeway will connect Triangle communities making both short and long bike trips for work, play and daily errands possible. Ideas from residents, other community members, and key stakeholders helped shape the plan. Agencies across the region worked together in the planning process, which took approximately 18 months.
