Active Transportation Plan

The new Active Transportation Plan (ATP) will develop the next five-year strategic plan to encourage and promote active transportation use for all ages and abilities. The ATP will be a consolidation of the City’s existing Bicycle Master Plan (adopted in 2018) and the Pedestrian Master Plan (adopted in 2016), as well as incorporate the latest design practices, policies, and infrastructure planning for all active transportation modes (including bicycling, walking, and micromobility). 

Background

Bicyclists Riding in Bike Lane

The existing Pedestrian Master Plan and Bicycle Master Plan established a five-year action plan with recommendations centered on expanding safe, continuous, convenient, and comfortable pedestrian and bicyclist access for all ages and abilities who live, work and visit Fremont. Over the five years since the adoption of these plans, the City of Fremont has made significant progress in the implementation of the various identified action items, including installing over 20 new pedestrian crossing flashing beacons, 40 miles of separated bikeways, 13 new protected intersections, adopting the Trails Strategic Plan (2021), and completing School Safety Assessments and over 400 “quick build” improvements for all 40 public schools in the City.

The ATP will continue the City’s progress with comprehensive engagement with the Fremont community and establishing the next set of active transportation strategies and guidance for the next five years, ultimately continuing the City’s overall mission of developing its infrastructure to be safe, convenient, connected, and comfortable for bicyclists and pedestrians of all ages and abilities who live, work, and visit Fremont.
