What is Bike Buffalo Niagara?
The Greater Buffalo Niagara Regional Transportation Council (GBNRTC) and its partners have developed a regional bicycle plan for Erie and Niagara Counties. The Bike Buffalo Niagara initiative will help create more bike-able communities in our region. The Plan includes goals and objectives; an inventory of existing conditions; community input to identify desirable routes; priority corridors to close gaps in the network; and design guidelines that support bicycling as a safe, comfortable, and healthy form of transportation, recreation and physical activity.
