R8Prioritize and increase bicycle funding In 1982, bicycle policies were added to the San Francisco General Plan: Transportation Element. The Department of Parking and Traffic (DPT) published the first San Francisco Bicycle Plan in 1997, which established an official network and policies to support bicycling. In 2001, DPT amended and re-adopted the Plan. The County Transportation Authority (CTA), the Planning Commission, the Citizens' Advisory Council (CAC), the Board of Supervisors (BOS) and the Mayor approved the 2005 Plan. The BOS adopted the Plan framework on June 27, 2006 by Ordinance No. 109-05. An Environmental 11 Impact Review (EIR), required as a result of a lawsuit, was completed in November
