What is the Rocklin Active Transportation Plan?

Driving is the primary way most Rocklin residents travel locally. However, many residents - especially children, seniors, and people with disabilities - are unable to drive. For others, the cost of vehicle ownership is too high. Walking or bicycling - also known as "active transportation" - are viable options for many local trips, including trips to school, shopping, and visiting friends. The ability to get around safely and comfortably by walking or bicycling also provides other benefits to the community. Fewer motor vehicles on the road means reduced traffic congestion and less air pollution, while improved walking and bicycling facilities offer residents convenient options for exercise and physical activity.

Rocklin currently has 18 miles of multi-use (off-street) paths, 61 miles of bike lanes, and sidewalks along nearly all streets in the City. But with many of our roads having high traffic volumes and high-speed traffic, there are things we can do to make Rocklin a safer, more comfortable place to walk and bike. This is especially important for people who don't have access to a vehicle or can't drive. This ATP will identify new projects and priorities for Rocklin, to help guide the City in spending its limited resources and securing federal, state, and regional grants to create improved mobility options for the community.

How Can I Help?

Input from Rocklin residents is an important part of developing this Plan. Using the interactive map below, you can identify specific locations where you would like to see improvements to create safer, more comfortable places to walk or ride a bike. Please look at the map and insert a marker at locations where improvements are needed, describe concerns you have, and add any suggestions for new or improved facilities. You can also review and comment on the suggestions that other people have made.

There is also a tab below where you can access brief survey. Your responses will help us understand local transportation safety priorities and needs. The survey is brief and should only take a few minutes of your time.

Thank you for your interest in this project and for helping to create a more bikeable and walkable Rocklin!
