Mosinee Safe Routes to School Plan

Safe Routes to School is a nationwide effort to increase the safety and health of children walking or bicycling to and from school. Nationally, walking and bicycling to school is viewed as a realistic way for children to achieve higher levels of daily physical activity and for communities to reduce the number and speed of vehicles in school zones.

City of Rhinelander Bicycle and Pedestrian Plan 2019

The focus of this plan is to enhance the viability of bicycling and walking as forms of transportation throughout the City of Rhinelander (Map 1). This plan focuses on guidelines for planning bicycle and pedestrian facilities, with general design and funding information included. This plan also examines existing conditions for biking and walking and suggests routes and segments on which to prioritize bicycling and walking improvements.
