Oklahoma City will celebrate National Bike Month in May with activities for cyclists of all ages and experience levels.
The Oklahoma City Council approved a construction contract for the next package of MAPS 4 bike lane projects, part of the $22 million initiative dedicated to expanding and improving bike facilities across the city.
This long-anticipated expansion will provide an inclusive, dynamic space for cyclists, skaters, and outdoor enthusiasts of all skill levels. The park’s enhancements offer something for everyone, from novice riders to seasoned pros, ensuring that the trails can be enjoyed by the entire community.
A new 3.3-mile bike lane is now open in Northeast Oklahoma City, offering cyclists a safer and more convenient way to navigate the area. The route connects the Capitol View, Springlake and Culbertson neighborhoods with key local resources, including Metro Tech’s Springlake Campus, Homeland grocery store and the MAPS 3 Community Health, Recreation and Wellness Center.
The MAPS 4 Bike Lanes initiative is set to transform Oklahoma City's cycling landscape with an impressive $22 million investment. These funds will drive targeted improvements to biking facilities identified through the meticulous planning of the bikewalkokc program adopted in spring 2018, aiming to weave a comprehensive network of on-street biking pathways throughout the city.
If you are a seasoned veteran of cycling or just a novice, you will be pleased to know that Oklahoma City has truly begun embracing this sport and casual activity more so than ever. Many new bike lanes have been added on city streets and lots of new and resurfaced biking trails are popping up, which adds up to about a dozen trails that cyclists can enjoy all across the city.
Oklahoma City is one step closer to having its first bus rapid transit (BRT) service.
One of Oklahoma City’s premiere outdoor experiences broke ground July 1 on a $1.4 million expansion to its bike park.
