The Michigan Department of Transportation (MDOT) is making 10 regional Road and Trail Bicycle Guides available for purchase online from the Michigan e-Store. Each map highlights roads suitable for bicycling, as well as regional trails, points of interest and destinations for bicyclists. The cost of each map is $5 to cover shipping and handling. The Michigan e-Store allows customers to purchase maps with a credit card and is part of the State of Michigan website at www.michigan.gov.
Michigan is a leader in the number of miles of developed shared-use pathway or rail-trails at more than 2,500 miles. Connecting these pathways are more than 2,000 miles of wide paved shoulders in rural areas and an increasing number of marked bicycle lanes in the urbanized areas.
Bicycle enthusiasts previously had to send in a mail-in form to order a map. While bicycle maps can still be ordered this way from the MDOT website, the e-Store option was added to be consistent with MDOT’s goal of becoming more customer-oriented and providing more cost-effective and efficient service to the public. May is National Bike Month.
