Chapter 8| <strong>Prioritization</strong> and <strong>Implementation</strong> Plan<br />

<strong>8.</strong>5. Non-infrastructure Improvement <strong>Prioritization</strong><br />

The programs recommended in this Plan are a relatively inexpensive method for improving and raising public<br />

awareness and adding to the safety and enjoyment of bicycling in <strong>Greenville</strong>. Because of their minimal expense<br />

and importance to supporting the bicycle travel and thereby increase usage, all of the recommended programs<br />

and policies are designated for short- or medium-term implementation, shown below as first- and second-tier<br />

priorities. A comprehensive and diversified approach to programs and policies is essential to growing the<br />

bicycling community and culture in <strong>Greenville</strong>. Thus, both first-tier and second-tier lists include an<br />

appropriate combination of mutually reinforcing strategies that reach diverse audiences.<br />

<strong>8.</strong>5.1. First-tier Programs, Policies, and Evaluation<br />

First-tier non-infrastructure recommendations are programs and policies that have the highest impact for the<br />

lowest cost. Short-term priority projects are listed below, distinguished by those programs that offer<br />

immediate opportunities through continuation and expansion of existing programs and those that will be<br />

strategies new to <strong>Greenville</strong>.<br />

Continued and expanded efforts:<br />

• National Bike Month Activities<br />

• Bicycle Patrol<br />

• Green Ribbon Committee<br />

• Adult Bicycling Skills Classes<br />

New efforts:<br />

This Plan recommends implementing first-tier programs, policies, and evaluation within 12 months of<br />

adoption of the Bicycle Master Plan.<br />
