It ranks North Carolina low in bicycle infrastructure and funding to relatively high in education and encouragement. The North Carolina Department of Transportation provides an annual matching grant fund to local governments in an effort to encourage towns and cities to come up with comprehensive bicycle and pedestrian plans. Currently, Fayetteville's dedicated bicycle paths include the 4.5-mile Cape Fear River Trail as well as bike paths in other local parks. Rusty Thompson, the city of Fayetteville's Engineering director, said efforts include creating multiuse lanes on newly resurfaced streets where possible. Additionally roads such as Fairfeld and Ravenhill and neighborhoods such as Vanstory Hills have multi-use lanes that can accommodate recreational bicyclists. Fayetteville has also incorporated bicycle racks on Hay Street, at Veterans' Park and other city park areas. And being pro-bike, Thompson has been putting on the pressure, "We've asked businesses and schools to do the same." Thompson added that he has worked with the Fayetteville Area Metropolitan Planning Organization on bike plans to identify short, mid and long-range multi-task lanes. "We are also looking for ways to connect area trails and link them through residential areas and side streets, " he confirmed.Miarer, who served on the local FAMPO's Transportation Advisory Commission, says education is the first step. "Signs are everywhere to let motorists know they need to share the road," he expressed. "Paint is cheap. Just paint us a bike lane."
