Active Transportation Plan

Active Transportation is human-powered mobility, such as biking, walking, or rolling. Marion County is recognized as one of the premier areas in Florida for bicycling, hiking and walking, and equestrian activities. The county has an abundance of trails, open space, parks, and facilities that support non-motorized forms of transportation for both traveling and recreational purposes.

On October 28, 2025, the TPO Board adopted an Active Transportation Plan for Ocala/Marion County. The Active Transportation Plan outlines a comprehensive framework for the investment in walking, biking, and other non-motorized transportation modes in Marion County. The Active Transportation Plan was developed concurrently with the 2050 Long Range Transportation Plan (LRTP) to ensure consistency across project lists and investment strategies.
