FHWA Cosponsor Ship for the International Mountain Bicycling Association for the 2010 IMBA World Summit

The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) cosponsored the International Mountain Bicycling Association (IMBA) World Summit that took place in Augusta, Ga., May 5-8, 2010. Mountain bicycling is one of the most popular recreational trail uses. About one-third of the Recreational Trails Program (RTP) projects funded through the States include mountain bike use (about $20 - $30 million per year of the $60 - $80 million in RTP obligations). The IMBA World Summit is an educational conference providing information about trail planning, design, construction, maintenance, operation, and management.
