There is a need for more bicycle facilities on the roadway network and bicycle parking. There is a need for better access to information about safely and conveniently bicycling in Greenville. Local residents are affected by aggressive driver behavior and/or high volumes and speeds of traffic on major roadways. Topography plays a part in Greenville bike ability
