Walk, Bike, Ride McKeesport

The Walk Bike Ride McKeesport Mobility Plan was guided by a collaboration between residents, stakeholders, and public input that was designed to ensure that McKeesport’s internal planning efforts were aligned with regional transit services and recreational opportunities. Because of this process, priority projects will be well positioned for implementation.

This study was funded by the Redevelopment Authority of Allegheny County, in partnership with the Allegheny County Health Department, utilizing a grant from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control’s Racial and Ethnic Approaches to Community Health (REACH) program.
