Produced with 2M Associates, the purpose of the Contra Costa County Trail Design Resource Handbook is to facilitate and ensure consistency in the design and construction of bicycle trails throughout the county. Because mobility by bicycle, either on roadways or designated bikeways, does not stop at city limits, there is a need for a consistent countywide approach. This resource manual is intended to be a model and a reference in the design of bicycle trails for Contra Costa's nineteen cities, the County, and park districts. Cities are encouraged to reference and/or adopt this handbook, where appropriate, as part of their own Bicycle Plans and/or General Plans.
