At their annual meeting Wednesday night, the Bicycle Transportation Alliance (BTA) launched an effort to identify and prioritize a list of projects that will update their 'Blueprint for Better Bicycling.' The BTA's first Blueprint, a report that identified a list of their top 40 infrastructure projects around the region, was released nearly seven years ago.
