Bozeman City Commission,
Bozeman has multiple small and large parks to serve our growing population, but a limited bike trail system
considering the tremendous population and the burgeoning interest in biking. I am urging you to alllocate funds
from the Trails, Open Space and Parks bond to construct a Frontage Pathway. This pathway would make an
important addition to other segments (Valley Center and the path to the “M”) to connect a longer biking trail. Since
funds are available, this is an opportunity to boost the biking path system.
Biking and walking paths encourage not only recreational use, but as a truly viable way to get to work. Our
roads, especially the Frontage Road, are too busy to allow safe biking. Bozeman needs to continue planning for
more bike pathways and take advantage of available funds now.
Sincerely
Priscilla Dolan
