Draft Bike Plan: Make bike riding better in Port Phillip

The bike plan is one component of the Sustainable Transport Framework. Some figures: most bike trips by Port Philip residents are between 2 and 5 kms in length. Just over 5% of people riding into the Melbourne CBD are from Port Phillip. [Of course, not all cycle commuters are heading to the CBD.]
The bike plan has four goals:

• enhanced bike riding infrastructure: on and off road, and better links between them




• integrating bike riding through providing for bike riding at origins and destinations and linking with other sustainable transport modes




• changing travel behaviour




• creating a bike riding culture through working with others, and improving coordination across council, and raising the profile of cycling
