Corridor Plan Updates & Routing Within Corridors / Re: Process to Approve a Route within a Corridor

Thanks for posting this - and it could be a good start toward a template for a process - but I'll have to agree with Kerry. It seems to be too detailed, and somewhat prescriptive. I could easily see agencies objecting to such a process (the situation is usually complicated enough without making it more complicated).

If I get time, I'll see if I can come up with some constructive suggestions.

I'm the chair of the AASHTO Task Force on US Bicycle Routes. I've had the pleasure of working with ACA on this issue since 2003, and with Ginny for much of that time (thanks!)

I'm the Traffic Design Manager for the Northern Region of the Arizona Department of Transportation. I serve on the AASHTO Subcommittee on Traffic Engineering, and am a liaison to the AASHTO Technical Committee on Nonmotorized Transportation. I am the chair of the Bicycle Technical Committee of the National Committee on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (NCUTCD - you missed this one 

I'm also a life member of the Adventure Cycling Association, a life member of the League of American Bicyclists, and a League Cycling Instructor.

I haven't done too many multi-day tours, but I have quite a few long distance rides under the wheels.
