Bike and Walk Greenville NC
Welcome! This interactive map is provided to gather comments from the public about bicycling and walking conditions in the Greenville Urban Area MPO (City of Greenville, Town of Winterville, Town of Ayden, Village of Simpson, and portions of Pitt County). We are looking for information about streets and routes that you use, routes you believe are bicycle and pedestrian-friendly, or un-friendly, and areas where you think improvements are needed. The comments will be gathered and used in the planning process that is underway to develop an MPO-wide bicycling and walking improvement plan.
You can participate in three ways:
1st: At the upper right, click on login.
