MnDOT invites Minnesotans to share perspectives on bicycling, e-bikes and electric scooters
ST. PAUL, Minn. – The Minnesota Department of Transportation is seeking feedback about statewide bicycle infrastructure to help update the agency’s Statewide Bicycle+ System Plan.
We want to know:
- How do people use bikes, e-bikes and other individual transportation like electric scooters
- What kind of physical or socioeconomic barriers do people face when biking
- What infrastructure improvements are needed to better accommodate these modes of transportation
MnDOT will gather public feedback between now and this fall online and through various events. This information will be used to help update the plan, which develops a vision, goals, and strategies for MnDOT’s role in supporting bicycling and bike-like modes of transportation statewide. It also aims to create safer and more enjoyable places to ride in Minnesota.
A draft plan is expected in summer 2026. The last update was made in 2016.
