Bicycle and pedestrian planning seeks to provide safe, accessible, and connected transportation infrastructure for bicyclists and pedestrians.
Funding Opportunities
Local and County Governments can apply for Florida's Shared-Use Non-motorized (SUN) Trails funding to design and construct paved trails within or adjacent to the SUN Trails network.
TA funds a variety of smaller-scale projects to aid accessible non-motorized travel, including on- and off-road bicycle and pedestrian facilities, recreational trails, safe routes for non-drivers, safe routes to schools, and ADA requirements.
