Figure 1: Study Area: Springfield Urban Growth Boundary
The Walk and Roll Springfield: Active Transportation Plan (“Project”) will create a new Active
Transportation Plan (ATP) for the City of Springfield to address critical gaps in the City’s active
transportation infrastructure network, especially in Climate Friendly Areas (CFA). The City currently has
an outdated 1998 Bicycle Plan. The City also has a 2035 Transportation System Plan (TSP). This Project
will replace the 1998 Bicycle Plan and will comprise the bicycle and pedestrian system elements for the
City of Springfield’s TSP. The Project will comply with current Transportation Planning Rules
requirements for bicycle and pedestrian system planning. The 2035 TSP will otherwise still be in effect
until the next major TSP update. If there is a conflict between the 2035 TSP and the Walk and Roll
Springfield: Active Transportation Plan, the Walk and Roll Springfield: Active Transportation Plan will
apply.
