The Plan also includes non-infrastructure programs that are essential facets of developing a bicycle friendly County, including education, encouragement, enforcement, and evaluation programs. The Plan also includes design guidelines for bicycle treatments, funding options, and a phased implementation strategy for the proposed bikeway facilities and programs. The Plan is a policy document that plans for bicycle infrastructure in the unincorporated County.
