**HOUSTON BIKE PLAN** ![1][1] The objective of Houston bike plan project is to encourage Houston citizen to bike more in order to increase public health and livable trait of the city. The plan proposes changes in policy making, street engineering, bike route and infrastructure. The citizen design science is attained by the fact that each citizen can contribute by joining webinars and comment on the draft of the plan via houstonbikeplan.org. This would help the planner with better understanding situations of different neighborhood as well as provide the public with facts as well as vision of the authority. My opinion for the plan: - We need to increase the bike usages as a primary method to work rather than just recreational function as in most cases. - The design of streets is also needed to take into consideration due to the fact that too many methods of transportation also can cause confusion to the commuters. ![2][2] ![3][3] ![1][4] [1]: http://www.bikehouston.org/wp-content/uploads/2015/05/11072941_10152745727861384_5071781609867458605_o.jpg [2]: http://ww4.hdnux.com/photos/35/35/62/7724171/3/1024x1024.jpg [3]: http://www.bikehouston.org/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/cyclo_femme_women.jpg [4]: http://bikebarn.com/merchant/171/images/site/20150208_BikeLane_MDJ_01.jpg
