Making bicycles part of everyday life through pop-up protected bike lanes, youth bike education, and physical activity. Part of the @KiDZNC at @umiamimedicine.
It's 2023 and protected bike lanes *still* increase safety (crashes drop 40%) and the inclusivity of your city's bicycle facilities for riders of all ages and abilities. /reminder...for now.
THIS JUST IN: A #protectedbikelane network is being developed in @pinecrestfl, coordinated with the @Cycling_Embassy. A resident-led petition has since evolved, containing a lot of the background information about the network. See: actionnetwork.org/petitions/supp…

.@KERR_MPD explains how a modal filter, even a temporary one, makes #BikeToSchoolDay more than a one-day event - it demonstrates how important #safestreets and #trafficcalming are for youth mobility. @miamidadetpo @MiamiPD @CGEPTA @BikeLeague @CoconutGroveBID @Damianpardo8
We rode today with over 150 #bikebus riders from the @CGEPTA for #NationalBikeMonth! We provided a pop-up bike lane to make sure every child and parent could ride in safety, supported by the amazing @KERR_MPD. Thank you @miamidadetpo w/@jesusfuentes80 for supporting.
The bike bus is back! @CGEPTA is celebrating National #BikeMonth and @walkrollschool this year with their neighborhood grassroots #bikebus and pop-up bike lane. If you are a parent or caregiver with a child at @GroveElem, join the ride to school on May 1st, 2025 at Blanche Park.

Hey PDX! How about some protected bike bus routes to school!? @CoachBalto @BikeSafe
What's better than a #bikebus? A bike bus with a #protectedbikelane. 120 people on bikes, 240 walking, 75 on scooters or skateboards, 85 fewer automobiles. That's a 34.5% reduction in @CoconutGroveBID car congestion by ADDING a protected bike lane. Let's build it for real.

Happy National Child’s Day! Today recognizes that every child has the opportunity to pursue the limits of their talents and ambitions. Active transportation is important for children, and we encourage everyone to support it! @themiamiproject @univmiami #WalkSafe #BikeSafe
SW 7th at @AdaMerrittK8 should become a full-time pedestrianized street, not just a temporary safety zone. The on-street parking makes bike routes difficult in Little Havana, unless residents accept a lane dropped. Still difficult to get parking-protected BL's done in Miami.
Great to see one of this year's Road to Zero Community Traffic Safety Grant recipients in action! @iBikeSafe and @iWalkSafe at @umiamimedicine are promoting quick-build safety improvements for schoolkids. Applications for 2025 grants are now open: nsc.org/road/resources…
Thanks again to the @NSCsafety @RoadToZeroUS for funding the pop-up bike lane at @GroveElem. Every year, the pop-up's paint job gets messier, and that's good, because it means more kids are participating. Stay tuned for some Grove community charrettes coming up!
It was a true pleasure to participate in the @ibikesafe pop-up bike lane painting event on Matilda Ave by Coconut Grove Elementary School! 🚲📚🍎 We participated in the painting of this bike lane in preparation for today’s bike bus because every child deserves a safe route to…
These two junctions are a translation of best practice from the Netherlands—including corner islands that force motorists to slow their speed, take a more perpendicular turn, and visually acknowledge crossing pedestrians and cyclists; significantly improving safety for all users.
