Click here to find out more about the ATIP.) All four of Millcreek’s applications were selected and 100% funded in the combined amount of $90,000. Designs of new bike lanes are underway for portions of Upland, Jupiter, Brockbank, and Siggard Drives, each of which is on Millcreek's ATIP. The new bike lanes will be designated with occasional wayfinding signage and by paint along the existing shoulders of the roadways. They will be designated as either mark bike lanes or "sharrows" (Share the Road). Generally, bike lanes will be installed in uphill sections where bicycles travel slower and "sharrows" in downhill sections when bicyclist and maintain speeds close to the posted speed, typically 25mph. We're all familiar with bike lanes, which are designated areas for bicyclists to travel between two painted lines. Just like you can't park in a regular car travel lane, you can't park in a bike lane.A "sharrow" (Share the Road) allows a bicyclist to occupy the regular car travel lane and have the right-of-way. State law allows a bicyclist to occupy the lane without the “sharrow” markings, however, the pavement marking helps to remind the driver and bicyclist to share the road. Parking is allowed on the shoulder of of the road marked with bike lanes or "sharrows", as long as you park between the gutter and the white line. Areas where there isn’t enough room to park will be signed as “No Parking”.

Due to some recent flash flood events in our city, it is important to remind residents to keep yards, curbs & gutters, sidewalks, and driveways free of dirt, leaves and other materials. This will prevent these materials from washing down the gutter during storm events and clogging a catch basin grate (see photo below). A clogged grate prevents storm water from entering the storm drain system and leads to flooding of property, including landscaping, driveways, garages, and basements. If you live next to a catch basin, please clean the grate as needed and dispose of the material. For more severe clogging of both the grate and catch basin, please call the city at [PHONE REDACTED] for scheduling of maintenance. Let's work together to prevent these pollutants from entering local waterways and improves water quality.
