Welcome to website for the Fairfield County Active Transportation Plan project!
We will update this site throughout the planning process, so please stay tuned for additional information.
Project Description:
Fairfield County’s existing Active Transportation Plan was initially developed in 2009 and last updated in 2013. OSU’s City & Regional Planning Transportation Studio is currently working with key stakeholders, including Fairfield County staff, Fairfield County’s Active Transportation Sub-Committee, Central Ohio Rural Planning Organization (CORPO) staff, and the public to re-visit the Active Transportation Plan with the aim of addressing current and future county-wide active transportation needs. The plan will include focused recommendations for active transportation options for the Buckeye Lake Area, the City of Lancaster, and Violet Township.
What is active transportation?
Active transportation is any form of transportation through human-powered means. Active transportation includes walking, running, hiking, cycling, rowing, horseback riding, skateboarding, or using walkers, wheelchairs, motorized wheelchairs, kick scooters, or roller skates. Active transportation does NOT include driving, riding the bus or train, or motorized boating.
