Transportation and Trails

The Boulder County Commissioners believe strongly in providing transportation systems that minimize single-occupancy vehicle trips and maximize opportunities to travel via healthier alternative modes: transit, carpools and vanpools, biking, walking and taking the bus. The Board invests County dollars into trails and transit projects, in addition to road improvements that make travel safer and easier for cyclists and motorists alike.

The Commissioners also work closely with local cities and towns  and with surrounding communities to plan and implement transportation systems. Boulder County's Land Use Code and Intergovernmental Agreements play a key role in ensuring smart transportation. One important policy, for example, states that future development should be focused in existing urbanized areas, thus reducing vehicle miles driven to run errands and complete other activities.
