Unless you're driving a car, it's incredibly dangerous to get around in Oklahoma City. If you're on a bicycle, you have to worry about sharing a lane with maniacs in SUVs who are more interested in looking at the newest Snapchat filters than watching the road. For pedestrians, most of the city is like an off-road challenge, and you still have to be cautious for bad drivers.
I know all this because I use a bicycle as a primary mode of transportation. Now, the city is launching a master plan to dramatically improve the way we walk and cycle around. Dubbed Bike Walk OLC, the initiative "shows how to plan and build a complete bicycle and pedestrian network throughout the city to promote safer, healthier and more enjoyable active transportation choices." The city even allowed people to leave notes and comments on their comprehensive proposal up until... yesterday. Sorry for the late notice.
