Lake Norman Bike Route

LAKE NORMAN BICYCLE ROUTE

North Carolina’s first regional bicycle plan has been endorsed by the four counties surrounding the Lake and the nearby municipalities. It was adopted in 2010 by the LNRPO, Unifour RPO, and the Mecklenburg–Union MPO. In years to come, the LNBR will take shape as a continuous, multi-jurisdictional bicycle route that will encircle Lake Norman, segment-by-segment. It will connect prominent destinations, neighborhoods, and various local bicycle facilities within the surrounding area; providing a safer, useful, and attractive transportation and recreation resource for a wide range of bicyclists.

PUTTING THE PLAN ON THE GROUND

A Task Force composed of representatives from each of the municipalities and counties, the Carolina Thread Trail, NCDOT and other agencies, including the LNRPO, is now meeting regularly. This team’s number one goal is to promote implementation, use, advocacy and public awareness of the LNBR.
