Pathways - Plan - Prioritization
In June 1999, a committee of Miami Township residents developed the
Miami Township Pathways Plan, a document that identified the need for
more extensive pedestrian, bicyclist and other non-motorized
transportation routes throughout the Township. The Pathways Plan
particularly identified a need for non-motorized travel opportunities
along major roadways and between residential centers, schools and
parks.
The Comprehensive Plan Steering Committee reviewed the Pathways Plan
after completion of the Preferred Land Use Plan and Transportation
Analysis to determine whether the Pathways identified were still
appropriate in terms of existing and future land use and to determine
general levels of priority for different routes. A three-level
determination of priorities was developed in order to help the
Township focus its efforts on designing and constructing the most
needed pathways. This analysis did not determine the appropriate
method of pathway construction, a process that requires detailed
engineering evaluation.
The Pathways Prioritization is presented in Figure
