West Cook Bicycle and Pedestrian Plan

The Villages of Bellwood, Berkeley, Broadview, Hillside, and Westchester have partnered with the Chicago Metropolitan Agency for Planning (CMAP) to develop the West Cook Bicycle and Pedestrian Plan. The partnership between the five communities will help create a complete and connected network of bikeways and sidewalks that will allow residents to access key destinations throughout the West Cook region.

Through data collection and analysis and community involvement, the West Cook Bicycle and Pedestrian Plan will:

  1. Identify Challenges and Opportunities for Walking, Biking and Rolling in the Villages
  2. Develop Safe and Accessible Bicycle and Pedestrian Networks for West Cook Community Members to get to Important Destinations by Walking, Biking or Rolling.
  3. Provide Streetscape Improvements and other Strategies to Improve Bicycle and Pedestrian Safety and Comfort.
