Durham, NC - Durham Bike and Hike Map

Remember Durham is in the Cape Fear River watershed. I got this note today about a Bike and Hike Map:

Durham has a new bike & hike map! The map was developed by Greenways Inc (based in Durham) with input from many individuals and organizations and valuable guidance by an advisory committee (with representatives from DOST, BPAC, the Bicycle Co-op, a local bicycle shop, and city and county staff).

The map can be viewed on-line at:

http://www.durhamnc.gov/departments/transportation/bike_hike_map.cfm

Since this is the first version of the map, an on-line form has been created to share comments and ideas. These will be incorporated into future versions of the map.

The map will be available at the Festival for the Eno this weekend (July 3, 4, and 5) at the booth shared by BPAC, DOST, and TRTC (i.e., Durham Bicycle and Pedestrian Advisory Commission, Durham Open Space and Trails Commission, and Triangle Rails to Trails Conservancy). A contribution of $1 is requested to help defray the cost of printing.

The map is also available at Durham City Hall in the Transportation Department (fourth floor), weekdays from 8:30 am to 5:00 pm. Copies will also be provided to Durham bicycle shops (REI and the Bicycle Chain) and the Durham Bike Co-op.
