Pedestrian & Bicycle Program Grant

The Pedestrian & Bicycle Program, funded by the Washington State Department of Transportation, aims to enhance safety and mobility for pedestrians and cyclists. With an available budget of $49,380,000 for the 27-29 biennium, it supports projects like bike lanes and sidewalk improvements. The program emphasizes the importance of active transportation and requires annual reporting on project statuses to ensure transparency and accountability.

The Pedestrian / Bicyclist Program (PBP) provides funding to improve pedestrian and bicyclist safety and mobility and to increase active transportation trips.
