Statewide
Pennsylvania Active Transportation Plan
Pennsylvania's active transportation plan identifies and prioritizes strategies that will promote more bicyclists and pedestrians, while supporting safety and multimodal connectivity. It will simultaneously serve as a resource for metropolitan and rural planning organizations, as well as municipalities throughout the Commonwealth as they develop and implement regional and local active transportation plans.

2020-2024 Pennsylvania Outdoor Recreation Plan
Pennsylvania's Statewide Comprehensive Outdoor Recreation Plan (PDF), which is the blueprint for delivering outdoor recreation services for the next five years, can be downloaded from their website. Early in the plan development process, the plan leadership team identified five priority areas to serve as the foundation for action. These priorities capture the current challenges and opportunities and offer recommendations for supporting outdoor recreation for all Pennsylvanians. • Health and Wellness • Recreation for All • Sustainable Systems • Funding and Economic Development • Technology

Active Transportation Profiles
In order to get a comprehensive understanding of the region's active transportation network, SPC staff solicited input from county planners from each member county and the City of Pittsburgh to learn more about existing conditions and local trends in walking and biking, and what policies and programs are in place to support growth in bicycle and pedestrian travel. Results of this process helped inform development of the regional active transportation plan. A summary of findings are presented in snapshot reports or "active transportation profiles" for each county and the City.
