摘要: Under the leadership of the Federal Highway Administration, spending for bicycle and pedestrian projects has increased from approximately $4 million of federal money annually in the late 1980s to an average of $160 million per year during the 1990s, reaching $239 million in 1997. In addition, significant amounts of money are being invested by state and local governemnts to improve conditions for bicycling. The Transportation Equity Act for the 21st Century (TEA-21) holds even greater potential for funding bicycle facilities and programs. State and local transportation planning agencies also are more aware of the demand for facilities that will allow people to bicycle and of the environmental, economic, and congestion-relief benefits of bicycling. As a result, a continued surge in bicycle facility investment is expected as an alternative to the investments of the past, which too often excluded bicycling as a choice.
