Someone over at The Stranger was passed a final draft of the Seattle Bicycle Master plan.

“The plan recommends expanding Seattle’s networked bike trails from 69 miles to 162 miles over the next five years, outlines exactly where new bike lanes and mixed-use trails should go, suggests that certain streets become “bicycle boulevards,” fixes the Burke-Gilman Trail’s problematic “missing link,” and offers a schedule for when to do what. These improvements will be funded, in large part, by Proposition 1, which was just passed by Seattle voters to improve the region’s roads. The $365 million levy is designed to include about $70 million for non-car-centered improvements.

Will this new master plan make good on Mayor Greg Nickels’s promise to make Seattle the most bike-friendly city in the nation? See for yourself”
