The Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT) is advancing active transportation toward the goal of providing all Hoosiers and visitors access to healthy, active transportation opportunities enabled by quality pedestrian and bicycle facilities.
This comprehensive active transportation network complements the overall performance of Indiana’s transportation system across all modes of transportation. Sound mobility options for pedestrians and bicyclists are vital to advancing the economic status and quality of life for Indiana communities statewide.
The State of Indiana benefits from increased economic competitiveness (retaining existing businesses, attracting new enterprise, and sustaining property values); growing tourism and recreation; and becomes known for its exceptional active transportation network.
This Draft Active Transportation Report, “Toward an Active Indiana,” is a living enterprise that is continuously growing through the review of feedback from the public, local planning partners, regional stakeholders, and elected officials. With a focus on data-driven planning, the INDOT Technical Planning and Programming Division is committed to fostering a continuing, comprehensive, and cooperative (3C) planning process with partners on local, regional, and state levels. Unique perspectives offered by innovative and multidisciplinary partnerships allow INDOT to be poised and proactive in championing active transportation statewide.
