Committee discusses phased approach to Center Street bike lanes, cites safety and easements
Summary
Members voiced support for increasing Groveland’s bikeable footprint and discussed a phased, feasibility‑driven approach for Center Street that would prioritize safety, require CPC coordination, and could need easements and targeted stretches rather than a full corridor conversion.
The committee discussed a concept to add protected or painted bike lanes on Center Street, singled out as an important thoroughfare for town cycling. Chair said Town leaders are interested in increasing the bikeable footprint but cautioned that Center Street varies in width and will likely need a phased approach focusing on segments that are most feasible.
Members emphasized safety as the top priority and suggested early engagement with CPC and town staff to develop a plan that identifies solid stretches to convert rather than piecemeal installations. Chair said outreach to property owners may be necessary for easements on constrained sections.
