Shared-Use Paths Best Practices Spotlight Article

A shared-use path (also called a multi-use path) is a bikeway, at least 8 feet in width, physically separated from motor vehicle traffic by an open space or barrier, and within a highway or independent right-of-way. In addition to bicycle use, shared-use paths may also be used by pedestrians, skaters, wheelchair users, joggers, and other users. This National RTAP Best Practices Spotlight Article highlights a shared-use path project that spans across Washington, DC, Maryland, and Virginia.
