Pedestrian and Bike Improvement Projects Begin Next Week

Spokane officials announced the launch of two significant projects focused on enhancing pedestrian and bike routes in the north of the city, set to begin next week. These improvements aim to create safer and more accessible pathways, encouraging residents to engage in walking and cycling. The city's commitment to sustainable transportation is underscored by these initiatives, which align with broader efforts to promote eco-friendly commuting options. In a related development, flags will be lowered in memory of former Secretary of State Ralph Munro, marking a respectful tribute on the day of his interment. Munro's legacy includes notable contributions to the state, making this gesture of honor significant for the community.

Both announcements were made on June 27, 2025, highlighting the city's active role in both infrastructure development and civic remembrance. The projects reflect ongoing investments in local infrastructure that benefit residents and promote healthier lifestyles. Together, these actions demonstrate Spokane's dedication to enhancing the quality of life for its citizens.
