3. BikeOsh 2021 - Discussion
The committee discussed the feasibility of holding this event during the pandemic. The group
thought it was best to hold some kind of event while respecting social distancing guidelines.
Tentatively, the groups decided to keep the event during the entire month on May and to utilize
social media to establish the prize giveaway.
4. Branded Route – Polco - Discussion
Ms. Naudziunas explained that the committee has this as a long term goal of marketing an
existing route in the city. Based on a map provided by staff, the committee settled on the route
for this project at the November meeting. Ms. Naudziunas asked the committee for guidance
on how best to settle on a name for the route. She suggested that they utilize Polco to get
feedback on potential route names. The committee agreed that this would be a good idea and
they would like have this posted to Polco in January.
5. 41 Commuter Route – Transit Bus Route – Kaukauna to Oshkosh
Mr. BellCorelli explained this project. Valley Transit and GO-Transit are working on rerouting
Route 10. It will be a bus that goes from Kaukauna to Oshkosh, taking the same amount of time
that it would take via personal vehicle. It will be geared towards serving commuters who work
in either of these areas. The goals will be to incorporate bike routes to accommodate the last
miles of most user’s trips. They are hoping work on this during 2021, with a goal of a pilot
program sometime later this year.
