Bike Tour Route
The Transportation Commission will hold a mobile work session on July 29, 2026, touring Richfield's bike infrastructure by bicycle starting and ending at City Hall (6700 Portland Ave S) between 6:30 PM and 8:45 PM. The route passes six stops including the I-35W/66th Street interchange, the Penn Avenue/Hwy 62 interchange, Sheridan Hills Elementary School, 69th Street and Penn Avenue, Richfield Middle School, and the 76th/77th Street intersection along Nine Mile Creek Regional Trail.

Potential benefit
The tour lets commissioners directly assess bike infrastructure conditions near schools and major road crossings, which could inform future safety improvements funded by the city.
Concern to consider
No budget or specific project changes are proposed at this meeting; it is an information-gathering exercise, so residents may see no immediate infrastructure changes.
What happens next: Findings from the bike tour may inform future Transportation Commission recommendations on bike infrastructure improvements.
