About The Bikeway
The South Coast Bikeway is a regional priority as outlined in the Southeastern Regional Planning and Economic Development District's 2020 Regional Transportation Plan. For more South Coast Bikeway documents, visit the documents page and be sure to check out our events calendar for meeting dates, bike rides and other events.
The South Coast Bikeway, once realized, will be a 50-mile continuous system of bike paths (or multi-use paths) and bike lanes that will connect Rhode Island to Cape Cod. Cities and towns included in this plan are Swansea, Somerset, Fall River, Westport, Dartmouth, New Bedford, Fairhaven, Mattapoisett, Marion and Wareham. Several segments of the bikeway already exist in Swansea, Fall River, New Bedford, Fairhaven, Mattapoisett and Wareham and are highlighted in the interactive map below. |
The South Coast Bikeway was designated as part of an East Coast Greenway route from Providence to Provincetown in 2011. A map of the proposed East Coast Greenway Providence to Provincetown bikeway can be found here.
Who We Are |
The South Coast Bikeway Alliance is a non-profit organization made up of community representatives and groups that work with local leaders and organizations to advocate for and build the networks of bikeways throughout the South Coast region. Our overall goal is to promote active transportation and recreation.
