About the South Coast Bikeway
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.
The South Coast Bikeway is a regional priority as outlined in the Southeastern Regional Planning and Economic Development District's 2016 Regional Transportation Plan. The proposed bikeway was also identified as part of the Bay State Greenway, MassDOT's proposed long distance bicycle transportation network. 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 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.

Cost Estimate (Preliminary):
A cost estimate for the South Coast Bikeway Project was developed by SRPEDD staff in 2012. Design and construction costs were included in this estimate. The estimate was calculated using average costs per mile for Class I (off-road bike path/multi-use path) and Class II (bike lanes on a roadway) bikeways compiled from MassDOT. The breakdown of costs can be viewed here.
