The City of Oshkosh has prepared a 20-year Pedestrian and Bicycle Circulation Plan to develop sound strategies for improving pedestrian and bicycle transportation throughout the Oshkosh area.

Recommendations were developed using an analysis of existing facilities, Ordinances, and plans as well as suggestions/comments from the public, city staff and the Pedestrian and Bicycle Plan Stakeholder/Steering Group. Recommendations include a principal recommendation to establish an official City Bicycle and Pedestrian Commission, program recommendations, general facility improvements (i.e. bike lanes, sharrows, trails), route configuration, and implementation strategies, including a timetable for expansion of the bicycle network.

It is important to remember that the success of any plan requires active public participation and its implementation requires strong community support. Please take a moment to look over the information and be involved!
