Best of Bike Delaware 2015: “Every Skill. Every Age. Everyone. The 2015 Walkable Bikeable Delaware Summit”
Looking Back at 2015: This article was originally published on March 20, 2015. It was the 7th most viewed Bike Delaware article of 2015.
The 2015 Walkable Bikeable Delaware Summit will be held this year on May 7, 2015 in Dover.
The 2015 summit will be hosted by the American Heart Association, the Delaware Department of Transportation, the Delaware Department of Natural Resources and Environmental Control, the Delaware Division of Public Health, Delaware Greenways, the Dover/Kent Metropolitan Planning Organization, Sussex Outdoors and Bike Delaware.
At the summit, we will celebrate our progress at making a more walkable and bikeable Delaware. We will acknowledge our biggest and most difficult challenges. We will recognize those who are working every day to make a more walkable and bikeable Delaware. And – perhaps most importantly – we will help set Delaware’s walking and cycling agenda for the coming year.
The theme of the summit this year is
“Every Skill. Every Age. Everyone.”
That theme reflects our ambition to make cycling and walking so safe, so convenient and so much fun that everyone in Delaware will make them part of their everyday lives. The summit’s agenda will include
- The First State Trails and Pathways Plan
- Protected Bike Lanes
- “Level of Traffic Stress” Bicycle Network Planning
- “Walkable/Bikeable Communities Mean Business“
- Engineering, Traffic Control and the Manual of Uniform Traffic Control Devices
- Pedestrian Road Safety
Please join us in Delaware’s capital city on Thursday, May 7 for the 2015 Walkable Bikeable Delaware Summit. The summit is (amazingly, and only thanks to its incredibly generous sponsors) completely free!
