Bike Walk Twin Cities

About this original series

What is Bike Walk Twin Cities? Bike Walk Twin Cities is an initiative designed to make it easier for you to get where you want to go without using your car. Armed with a $21.5 million federal grant, we are building new bike lanes, safer crosswalks, and other improvements to make it easier to walk and bike in Minneapolis and its neighboring communities. We’re even making it easy once you get to your destination: Bike Walk Twin Cities invests in accessible, abundant, and smartly located bike parking, better lighting along biking and walking routes, and more pleasant streetscapes (with things like public art, greenery, and benches). Bike Walk Twin Cities also helps people figure out how to walk and bike, especially for short trips: did you know half of our trips can be completed in a 20 minute bike ride, and a quarter are within a 20-minute walk? The Bike Walk Ambassadors at the City of Minneapolis can come to your organization, your school, or your neighborhood and help you learn how to bike more, walk more and drive less. http://www.bikewalktwincities.org
