Growth Policy Goals: Pedestrians, Bikes & Cars     

  • Establish and maintain integrated transportation and recreational pathways, including bicycle and pedestrian trails, neighborhood parks, green belts and open space. (Bozeman, 2002)
  • An awareness that roads and highways provide the window through which many people view the community and therefore road design and location, signage, and landscape should be coordinated and tempered to provide the optimum setting for the future of Whitefish. (Whitefish, 2002)
  • Encourage properties to utilize common accesses to encourage frontage road development where densities or volumes are high and to avoid the hazards and traffic disruptions of multiple access points along major public roads. (Flathead County,1994 draft)
  • Address noise, air and safety impacts of major transportation facilities on adjacent land uses. (Missoula County, 2002)
  • Coordinate land use and transportation policies to discourage sprawl development, locate housing near jobs, encourage alternative modes of transportation and protect neighborhoods from traffic and road impacts. (Whitefish, 2002)
  • Development should pay its proportional share of the cost of improvements to the existing roadway system necessitated to address the impacts of development. (Lewis and Clark County, 2002)
