Types of Planning Activities : Transit Access Studies Transit access studies represent another level of bicycle and pedestrian planning. They typically include analysis and improvements to a specific zone immediately adjacent to (or surrounding) transit stations and/or transit stops, as well as on-site pedestrian and bicycle accommodations. Example plans Maryland Transit Access 2000 — This report prepared by the Maryland State Transit Administration identifies bicycle and pedestrian access routes to every transit station in Maryland, and evaluates the quality of the routes. Delaware Transit Access Corridor Study — The Delaware Department of Transportation sponsored this study that assessed the multimodal linkages and opportunities for public/private partnership on six roadway corridors throughout the state. The recommendations include creation of park and ride bicycle maps, provision of bike parking at park and ride lots and community outreach efforts. www.state.de.us/deldot/bike Contact: Delaware Bicycle and Pedestrian Coordinator, Del DOT, P.O.
