Spreading The Word For
Indoor Bike Parking
Every cyclist wants indoor
bike parking, but few have it. One of the biggest hurdles to getting indoor
bike parking, whether at home or at work, is convincing building owners that
it is a worthy use of their valuable space. To help combat this hurdle,
Transportation Alternatives and the NY Metropolitan Transportation Committee (NYMTC)
have teamed up to produce a how-to booklet to encourage building owners and
managers to install secure indoor bike parking. The booklet lays out the
basics
of installing bike parking and dispels the many unfounded concerns building
owners often have.
NYMTC's support for this
project and bicycle advocacy in the region is extraordinary and progressive in
comparison to other local agencies. Look for the booklet at all NYC Bike Week
events. It will also be distributed to building owners and managers around the
region this spring.
