The Town of Blacksburg recently concluded a connectivity study to outline how and where to expand bike, pedestrian, and other non-vehicular transportation infrastructure for the Toms Creek Basin. This includes new trail connections, sidewalk sections, bike lanes, or roadway improvements.
The Toms Creek Basin is home to an array of different housing types as well as popular recreational and commercial destinations. Many people get to (or want to get to) these places by bike, on foot, or via some other non-vehicular transportation mode, but a lack of bicycle and pedestrian infrastructure can make that a challenge. Creating and maintaining a connected bicycle and pedestrian infrastructure system is critical to improving safety and accessibility for users.
The Town of Blacksburg conducted asurvey to learn more about preferred activities and modes of transportation and priority areas for increasing non-vehicular connectivity/access within the Toms Creek Basin. The online engagement for this project closed on March 20th, 2023. The Town staff reviewed the feedback received; thank you if you participated. Please check out what we learned and click here or on the right-hand side to access the final report.
The information in this report is currently being incorporated into the Tom's Creek Basin Planning Study and priority projects will be considered as part of the Town's Capital Improvement Plan process.
