Haywood on the road to being a bike-friendly

Haywood County wants to create the county’s first-ever comprehensive bicycle plan.

The county is now accepting proposals from consultants interested in steering the process.

The selected firm will be responsible for:

• The collection of relevant background data and other information.

• Coordinating public input.

• The creation of a realistic — and doable — bicycle plan that can be shared in both print and electronic formats with government agencies, interested groups, businesses, individuals and others.

Expertise in developing bicycle plans for both urban and rural environments, including mountainous terrain, is required.

Applications must be received by 5 p.m. Friday, March 4. Go to BicycleHaywoodNC.org.

We don’t plan to change that model. Support from our readers will help us maintain and strengthen the editorial independence that is crucial to our mission to help make Western North Carolina a better place to call home. If you are able, please support The Smoky Mountain News.
