Bicycle and Pedestrian Advisory Committee

Take the Bicycle Friendly Community Survey

The City of Cedar Falls has recently applied to the League of American Bicyclists to renew the city's Bicycle Friendly Community status and we want to hear from you!

Provide your input and experience cycling in Cedar Falls by taking a public survey open through April 5, 2023. Feedback from the survey will help the League and our community better understand current bicycling conditions in the area and potential areas of improvement.

Participants do not have to be a resident of Cedar Falls to take the survey and all cyclists who enjoy riding a bike in Cedar Falls are strongly encouraged to share their voice.

Take the survey at bit.ly/bikeCF23.

Cedar Falls Bike Network Plan

The Bike Network Plan takes into consideration the input gathered from the public outreach questionnaire and community events that took place in the fall of 2021 which provided recommendations on how the biking system in Cedar Falls can be improved to allow for increased safety and access to streets, trails, and businesses. The main goal of the plan is to improve the daily commuting utility of the bike network.

The Cedar Falls City Council adopted the plan on May 16, 2022.
