How is a Greenway different from a Bikeway?
The primary goal of Bikeways is to make cycling a safe and convenient mode of transportation, largely through traffic calming measures. Greenways enhance the experience of walking and cycling through a wider range of improvements to the public realm, for example, by expanding parks, increasing landscaping, incorporating public art or installing drinking fountains. While bicycle commuters will also use Greenways, and many sections of the Greenways and Bikeways networks will overlap, recreational or less confident cyclists may feel more comfortable cycling along Greenways.
