In the fall of 2006 Madison Mayor Dave Cieslewicz formed the Platinum Biking City Planning Committee with the overall goals of:

1. Achieving the Platinum designation level through the League of American Bicyclists Bicycle Friendly Communities program, and
2. Putting forward a roadmap - or bike path - for Madison to become the best city in the country for bicycling.

The Committee's report was adopted by the Common Council on April 8, 2008.
