The staff report notes that work on the Oshkosh MPO Bicycle & Pedestrian Plan has begun and will run from 2026 into 2027, with initial data collection underway and community engagement to start in summer 2026. The plan will identify gaps and future connections in the multimodal network, separate Oshkosh from the prior joint plan with Appleton, and promote regional alignment, with related Safe and Accessible Transportation Options (SATO) work items funding bikeshare studies, wayfinding, counts, and a Complete Streets guidebook. Although staff are leading the update, the breadth of tasks—counts, wayfinding plans, bikeshare study, interactive trails app, and ADA transition work—points to multiple near-term needs for planning support, GIS/technology tools, wayfinding design, and later implementation. Active transportation and technology vendors can engage MPO staff now around data collection methods, web/app tools, signage standards, and near-term pilot projects likely to emerge as the plan advances.

Funding is programmed in SATO (FTA and FHWA) work elements 1363 and 1365F; no external prime consult...
