The event will take place from 4 – 7 PM on Tuesday, January 20, 2015 at the John W. Pitts Recreation Center (Schutte Park). We’ve heard and answered many questions about walk and bicycle needs in Dover. Now we need your help one more time to review the updated draft plans before we move toward their adoption. This is a chance to come out and see the draft plans and their recommendations, share your opinions, identify gaps in the city’s biking/pedestrian network and to identify where the City, the MPO and DelDOT can work together to make things smoother for all bike riders/pedestrians and drivers.
