With consultant assistance and in collaboration with the Susquehanna Greenway Partnership, the SEDA-COG and Williamsport MPOs developed a regional bike-ped plan for the counties along the Susquehanna River, namely Clinton, Columbia, Lycoming, Montour, Northumberland, Snyder and Union counties.
The Plan is designed to:
- Promote the regional bicycle and pedestrian network for its varied benefits: safety, health, mobility, environment and economy.
- Identify “missing links” in our regional bicycle and pedestrian network where future projects would help interconnect communities, including linkages to transit.
- Identify priority projects, actions, and initiatives to improve and promote use of the network.
- Include tools and strategies for cost-effective local improvements to make walking and riding a bicycle safer and more convenient.



Middle Susquehanna Active Transportation Committee
To develop the regional Bike-Ped Plan, SEDA-COG formed a Regional Advisory Committee. The Committee includes representatives from the seven counties, local municipalities, Susquehanna Greenway Partnership, walking and bicycling clubs, and the SEDA-COG MPO. Committee responsibilities include data collection, assistance with public and stakeholder outreach, and development of vision, goals, and projects.
The Bike-Ped Plan was adopted by the SEDA-COG and Williamsport MPOs in May 2019 and the Susquehanna Greenway Partnership in June 2019. The Plan will be implemented by the partnering agencies and progress will be tracked regularly. A comprehensive update is planned in 2026.
