Winnetka Bikeway Open House is Aug. 1 - DailyNorthShore.com
The Winnetka Park District will hold a Bikeway Master Plan Community Meeting on August 1 to provide residents an opportunity to learn more about a new bikeway plan for the village. The Park District first adopted a bikeway plan in April 2012 and presented it to the Village Council a year later where residents raised concerns about the plan. Shortly after the meeting, the Park District’s executive director retired and a new director, Robert Smith was appointed in January 2014. Since his appointment, Smith has focused on other priorities but turned his attention to the bikeway master... Hitchcock’s revised plan is based on concerns raised by residents at the Village Council meeting, as well as input from Village and Park District staff and the Park District Board. According to the plan on view at the Park District’s website , the first priority would be to create a bikeway by connecting Sheridan Road and Elm Street with signs and pavement markings.
