The Manteca Active Transportation Plan (ATP) is a comprehensive guide that creates a vision for a network of trails, bike lanes, sidewalks, and other elements aimed at supporting safe walking and bicycling throughout the City and providing connections to nearby destinations.

Purpose of Creating an ATP

Streets in Manteca can feel uncomfortable or unsafe for walking and biking due to poor conditions or lack of adequate connections. Furthermore, an expanded trail system could be used by more people who live or visit our city. The plan will seek to address these issues by updating the City's existing Bicycle Master Plan and creating a plan to facilitate walking. The plan will also help the City qualify for funding for new pedestrian and bicycle projects.

About Active Transportation

Active transportation is human-powered travel; examples include walking, bicycling, and using a wheelchair. These activities have many important health, economic, environmental, and social benefits such as:

• Connecting families to schools, parks, work, shopping, restaurants, and bus stops
• Improving health and reducing the incidence of disease and obesity
• Reducing air pollution
• Saving money on gas and car maintenance

Plan Process

• Summer-Fall 2019: Public Engagement & Stakeholder Outreach
• Winter-Spring 2020: Draft Plan
• Summer 2020: Final Plan & Public Presentation
