Bicycle Friendly Communities

As National Bike to Work Week commenced last week, the League of American Bicyclists announced the most recent communities joining the ranks of Bicycle Friendly Communities. These communities (which included South Windsor, CT, and Arlington, MA) brought the total of Bicycle Friendly Communities to 214, in 47 states.

The  Bicycle Friendly Communities program, sponsored by the League of American Bicyclists, is designed to encourage communities to invest in bicycling promotion, education programs, infrastructure, and pro-bicycling policies.

In addition to the two communities named above, the following communities are also deemed Bicycle Friendly Communities by the League of American Bicyclists:

  • Simsbury, CT;
  • Brunswick, ME;
  • Boston, Northampton, and Somerville, MA;
  • Concord and Keene, NH; and
  • Burlington, VT.
