The new Bike/Walk Twin Cities website was launched last week, just in time for the State Fair. Check it out at http://www.bikewalktwincities.org/. The website is intended to be a resource for walking and bicycling in the Twin Cities and eventually draw upon the combined knowledge and experience of the Twin Cities walking and cycling communities.

Many thanks to Brady Clark of Third Eyebrow (and a frequent TLC volunteer) for designing the website, and many additional thanks to TLC staff for the initial content. We’ll be expanding the website in the upcoming months, so please send your brilliant ideas on how to make the site more interactive and user-friendly to webmaster@bikewalktwincities.org!

As many of you know, Bike/Walk Twin Cities is part of a national Non-Motorized Transportation Pilot Project administered by Transit for Livable Communities in partnership with the Federal Highway Administration and the Minnesota Department of Transportation (MnDOT). The program is part of a four-year, $21.5 million initiative in four states that was backed by Congressman Oberstar in the 2005 federal transportation bill, SAFETEA-LU.

Also, check out the Bike/Walk Twin Cities booth in the Eco-Experience building of the State Fair. It looks pretty cool!
