Our Bike More, Drive Less projects are focused on installing new bike infrastructure to encourage more people to cycle and make roads safer for everyone. Our projects support the county’s Bike Montco Plan and the regional bike network, The Circuit Trails.
The History
The initial project was launched in 2022, thanks to a TOP grant from DVRPC and we were awarded a second TOP grant in 2024 to roll out the program to other municipalities. Project partners include the Bike North Penn, Bicycle Coalition of Greater Philadelphia, Montgomery County Planning Commission and municipal leaders in Hatfield Borough, Hatfield township, Lansdale and Upper Gwynedd.

New 2 miles of bike lanes, sharrows, and signage on Derstine Rd and Elroy Rd in Hatfield, which connect to a section of the Liberty Bell Trail.
