Spokane Valley Bike & Pedestrian Master Program Approved
This happened last week but I was out sick at the time so didn't blog about it: The Spokane Valley City Council voted unanimously to pass the Bike and Pedestrian Master Program and integrate it as part of the city’s comprehensive plan!
That's good news because having a bike and pedestrian plan will make it easier for the City to recieve grants and funding for future transportation projects. For a while there though, it looked the a couple Council members might not support the plan.
Here's the story from the Spokane Valley News Herald.
