Pg 3-14: Nonmotorized Transportation Pilot Program: Continued Progress in Developing Walking and Bicycling Networks
In 2005, the United States Congress directed the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) to develop the Nonmotorized Transportation Pilot Program (NTPP). The program provided over $25 million in contract authority to four pilot communities (Columbia, Missouri;Marin County, California;Minneapolis area, Minnesota;and Sheboygan County, Wisconsin) for pedestrian and bicycle infrastructure and nonmotorized programs.
