Virginia Bicycling Federation

The Virginia Department of Transportation will hold three informal meetings in southwestern Virginia to provide information about its bicycle and pedestrian program and allow people interested in bicycling and walking to discuss the program with VDOT representatives.

VDOT’s bicycle and pedestrian program was formed to ensure that bicycling, walking and other modes of nonmotorized transportation receive the same consideration as motorized transportation in the planning, design, construction and operation of Virginia’s transportation network.

The meetings to discuss the program will be held in Christiansburg, Salem and Martinsville from 5:30 p.m. to 7 p.m. as follows:

• Christiansburg - Thursday, March 13
  Montgomery County Government Center
  755 Roanoke St., Christiansburg
• Salem - Tuesday, March 18
  VDOT Salem District Office
  731 Harrison Ave., Salem
• Martinsville - Wednesday, March 19
  Henry County Administration Building
  3300 Kings Mountain Rd., Martinsville

The meetings will begin with VDOT representatives making a presentation about the bicycle and pedestrian policy. Discussion will follow. Anyone interested in additional information on VDOT’s Bicycling and Walking Program can visit the program’s website.
