The Bicycle and Pedestrian Advisory Committee (BPAC) consists of six members, each appointed by City Council.

Staunton's BPAC plays a crucial role in shaping a more accessible and enjoyable city for everyone on foot or bike. As Staunton continues to grow, this dedicated group of residents works closely with the city to ensure that our streets and pathways are safe and welcoming. They provide valuable input on projects, advocate for enhanced crosswalks in key areas like downtown, and encourage initiatives that make it easier for residents to bike to school or work and enjoy our beautiful parks. Essentially, the BPAC is a passionate voice for Stauntonians who want to see our city become even more pedestrian and bicycle-friendly, contributing to a healthier and more vibrant community for all.

• Bicycle and Pedestrian Commission Work Plan

The Bicycle & Pedestrian Plan was adopted by Staunton City Council on Thursday, May 24, 2018. The plan was funded through a grant from the Virginia Department of Transportation, Office of Intermodal Planning & Investment. The city partnered with Rhodeside & Harwell to assist with the planning process. The plan defines future bike and pedestrian networks, gives direction for constructing future facilities and helps the City be more competitive when seeking future funding.

The Bicycle and Pedestrian Advisory Committee began the process of updating the plan in 2024 to coincide with the update of the Comprehensive Plan. The updated plan will prioritize safety and connectivity by creating protected infrastructure and filling gaps in existing networks, while also considering accessibility for all users and promoting equitable access across different communities.
