Thanks to all who took part in our Visioning Events & Surveys
We appreciate all the insights shared as we discussed opportunities for our neighborhoods to benefit from bicycling during last fall and winter. Held in English, Spanish and Chinese, these meetings brought all ages and backgrounds together to share perspectives, address potential barriers and increase accessibility. 1200 survey respondents rounded out the picture.
Now we are putting the final touches on the outcomes. Enjoy photos now while our report is in the works. Ultimately we hope to create a new model for inclusive and sustainable development.
Special recognition: IOBY has designated Local Spokes a Major Honoree. Thank you IOBY!
