Projects
Completed in 2012
Although there is no new bike/ped infrastructure on Fort
Myers Beach this year, there was an model complete streets project completed in
2011 that was not included in last year's report, so we're including here:
·
North Estero Blvd. (2 lane miles of new bike lanes and 2 lane
miles of new sidewalks)--drainage and road improvement project completed in
2011. From the beginning, this
project was designed as a complete street, featuring trolley pull-offs, bike
lanes, and sidewalks on both sides of the blvd., separated from the auto and
bike travel lanes by landscaping. If you
want to visit a model complete streets project, this is it! Kudos to the Town of Fort Myers Beach. (See BikeWalkLee's blog posts of this project:June 11th and
June 12th.

which will include new bike/ped and complete streets facilities, is in the
planning phase during 2013. See BikeWalkLee's suggestions to Lee County.
