The MPO is in the process of developing a Master Bicycle and Pedestrian Master Plan. As a part of the process to develop the plan, an important component is gathering input from the public. Please send your comments or suggestions regarding areas you think need to be accessible to these modes of transportation to: TexarkanaBikePed@alliance-transportation.com. The MPO appreciates your feedback!
