(University of Oregon, 2018) Mason, Karen; Schlossberg, Marc
This report is the culmination of ideas and recommendations developed by University of Oregon students in the spring 2018 Bicycle Transportation class. In it are recommendations generated by both undergraduate and graduate students regarding how the city of La Pine can increase bicycle ridership among both residents and tourists. It puts forth proposals for both local and regional networks, street and intersection redesigns, Safe Routes to School programs, development codes, and methods through which to promote both placemaking and tourism. The central tenant of this report is to provide recommendations to the city of La Pine that promote ways in which more people can feel comfortable and safe enough to use their bicycles more often. It is the belief of the authors that by doing so, La Pine can increase the health and happiness of its residents, grow its economy, and reduce its environmental footprint.
