    What is the Grand Blanc Grid?

    It is a network of non-motorized paths, sidewalks and paved shoulders throughout Grand Blanc.

    We are on our way!

    Some paths have been built.  There are exciting projects planned that could accommodate a path.

    We need your help!

    Please join our friends group to help build momentum, raise awareness, raise money and partner with those who can make the dream of active transportation a reality.
