The city of Columbus is launching a new section of its website called “Bike Walk Columbus.”
The site is intended as a resource for pedestrians and bicyclists in Columbus and will serve as a primary source of information as the city continues to improve and expand its network of bicycle and pedestrian pathways and accommodations throughout the city.
“Bike Walk Columbus” features an online interactive map of existing bicycle and pedestrian facilities which will be continually updated to reflect the most current inventory of bicycle and pedestrian infrastructure in Columbus and Bartholomew County.

The mobile-friendly tool can be used at anywhere to assist bicyclists and pedestrians with route planning.
The website also includes an interactive map of ongoing bicycle- and pedestrian-related construction projects.
The map is intended to provide up-to-date information on the various public infrastructure projects underway in the city of Columbus and Bartholomew County, including sidewalks, bicycle lanes, trails and similar infrastructure.
The map includes projects in various phases of implementation, from conceptual design to construction and completion. Detailed descriptions of all listed projects, along with a timeline for completion, are also provided.
Site visitors can expect to find safety tips and guides, the city’s current bicycle and pedestrian plan and other similar studies and plans, a map indicating bicycle parking spaces, links to organizations that hosts bike rides and runs and information about the ColumBUS Rack and Roll Bike Service.
The website can be accessed at columbus.in.gov/bikewalk.
