2010 07Jul 21 - Alternative Transportation Study - Bodie Island


The National Park Service (NPS) has partnered with the John A. Volpe National Transportation Systems Center of the U.S. Department of Transportation to perform an analysis of transportation strategies for visitors traveling from and destined for sites within the Bodie Island District.

The Alternative Transportation Study focuses on the potential use of transportation services and non-motorized vehicle options, such as shuttle and local bus, water ferry, and routes for bicycling, hiking, and walking, as well as, their necessary services, equipment, facilities, and infrastructure. The study analyzes the movement of visitors within developed areas of Bodie Island especially in the context of increased visitation to the Bodie Island Lighthouse, but does not include transportation of visitors along the beach or to Bodie Island Spit. The study provides planning-level recommendations and estimates to inform future decision-making, but is not a decision document.
