Getting Around in the Original Downtown – Bike Week Transportation Panel

Getting Around in the Original Downtown: Bring your ideas (and your lunch) to our bike week transportation panel!

In celebration of Bike Week  (June 18-24), we’d like to take some time to reflect on how transportation networks have evolved in the Exchange District, and discuss ideas and opportunities for active transit and to build a supportive environment for all modes of transportation used in the area.

What: Bring your lunch, and join us for a summer picnic to chat transportation! Our picnic panel will kick-off the discussion, and open the conversation around walking, cycling, and transit in the Exchange. We will explore what is needed in the area to support a culture of sustainable transportation for businesses, residents, and the areas many cultural events. We will also discuss how can the BIZ can continue to support you to move around via whatever mode you choose.
