HOUGHTON - Giving people an option of transportation methods, including those which rely on human power, is the goal of the Complete Streets planning concept, and the city of Houghton is the first Upper Peninsula community to officially adopt it."

"It's a new approach to transportation planning," he said.

Sharp, who is also a member of the Houghton Bike Task Force, said communities which adopt Complete Streets agree when planning street and other infrastructure changes to consider including features which make non-motorized transportation, such as bicycling and walking, part of the plan when economically feasible. There are five other communities in the state, which have adopted the concept.

Let's see, right now if I want to ride a bike, I can. No one stopping me from doing that.

If I want to take a walk, I take a walk. No one stopping me from doing that.

So why the new planning, expanded roads, side walks and bike paths. Who's paying for this. Give this a couple more years and they will try to pass this crap in Wisconsin. You know, if people on bikes and those who walk would just follow the law we wouldn't need to waste money on someones pipe dream.
