It requires no cost, simply a resolution of support, to develop United States Bicycle Route 55.
That matter came before the Atchison County Commission during its January 24 meeting due to the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials designating a corridor crossing Kansas as the bike route.
Atchison County Clerk Michelle Phillips presented the Commission with the details of the project, which she says is for the serious bicyclist. During her presentation, Phillips told the Commissioners that revenue would likely be generated by cyclists who stop in the Atchison area as they travel the route. Signage would also be provided, with no road work requirements affecting the County.
Following Commission discussion, it was decided unanimously to table the matter prior to gaining additional information pertaining the County- portion of the bike route.
