Delphi, IN

In 2022, the City of Delphi was awarded funds from the Indiana State Department of health to develop the City’s first-ever bicycle and pedestrian master plan.  With over 15 miles of historic trails, five public parks, and an array of recreational amenities throughout the community, the City of Delphi had already demonstrated a strong commitment to bicycle and pedestrian activity and hired HWC Engineering to build upon these assets to ensure the bicycle and pedestrian network met the needs of its residents, visitors, and workforce.

HWC led a 4-month planning process that identified not only needed infrastructure projects, but policy and programming projects to help complement, support, and grow the extensive bicycle and pedestrian network already existing in Delphi.  Public engagement was a key element in identifying gaps within the network, as well as desired destinations.  The result of the planning process was a proposed facilities map that identified infrastructure projects ranging from side-paths to bike lanes to sidewalks.
