Active Transportation Drafted Plan
The Town of Bluff Active Transportation Plan Committee, in partnership with Bike Utah, is proud to present The Bluff Active Transportation Map and Plan. This project started with a small technical assistance grant in the spring of 2021 through the Citizen’s Institute on Rural Design. Over the next three years, three of our active transportation members, various residents and business owners, attended monthly training held by the Housing Assistance Council. This evolved into the creation of the Bluff Active Transportation Committee in the fall of 2022.
The map is schematic in nature and will be used to communicate Bluff’s broader vision with UDOT and other grant making bodies. The map is not mean to be used for other purposes. The proposal provides an overview of existing conditions, design guidance, funding, and implementation steps. The proposal outlines four project priorities, prioritized by the maximum improved impact on resident and visitor safety.

On August 9, 2022, the Bluff Town Council agreed to create the Safe Routes Committee, now named the “Active Transportation Advisory Committee” to explore planning grants, opportunities such as creating an active transportation plan, safe streets, and reconnecting communities. The committee serves as an advisory board to the Town Council and will formally make recommendations for Town Council vote upon.
Active Transportation Advisory Committee Bylaws
Mission: The Active Transportation Advisory Committee will lead a community driven process, creating and sustaining connectivity and active travel for safety, health and recreation.
What is an Active Transportation Plan? Active Transportation Plans, also known as Bicycle & Pedestrian Master Plans, are guiding documents adopted by different government entities. These lay the foundation for what types of walking and bicycle infrastructure will be built, where it will be built, and how it will be built. If you want your community to be a better place to walk and ride, an Active Transportation Plan is the starting point.
