In response to the petition created on behalf of the Morgantown Bicycle Board we received the following letter.
The petition asks WVDOT Secretary Paul Mattox to provide means for bicyclists to cross Cheat Lake at Ice’'s Ferry during the replacement of Ice’'s Ferry Bridge.
The Morgantown Monongalia Metropolitan Planning Organization was copied on the petition. The MPO policy board discussed the petition at their November 17 meeting and wrote the above letter requesting WVDOT to "work with cyclists in the area to address access across Cheat Lake during the construction of the new bridge".
125 people signed the petition before it was sent. Most are from around Morgantown.
Besides MPO Chairman, Joe Fisher, Ray LaHood, Secretary, US Department of Transportation; Earl Ray Tomblin, Governor of West Virginia and Asel Kennedy, President Monongalia County Commission were copied.
