Bicycling & Walking

Cover of SW MI Bike Map

With Michigan Department of Transportation (MDOT) funding, a map was developed by the Southwest Michigan Planning Commission (SWMPC) and its partners to assist individuals in finding appropriate bicycle routes in Southwestern Michigan. The map covers the counties of Allegan, Barry, Berrien, Branch, Calhoun, Cass, Kalamazoo, St. Joseph, and Van Buren.
