The Bicycle Pedestrian Advisory Committee (BPAC) is created to assist us with implementing Walk Bike Dutchess, our county-wide Pedestrian & Bicycle Plan, share best practices, and promote walking and bicycling. The BPAC is open to anyone, including representatives from local municipalities, bicycling and walking groups, the public, and staff from other Departments and agencies. It meets quarterly on the last Thursday of January, April, July, and October, and its work is reported to our Planning Committee.
