City Bikes Today on the Blvd Print E-mail
Thursday, 17 July 2008

 If you happen to be on the East Side today, you might run across something new -- bicyclists!  While bikes are not unknown in the city, their numbers are definitely growing, and today at 1 pm Mayor Cicilline will join cyclists for an inaugural ride along the brand-new two-mile bike lane on Blackstone Boulevard. Councilman Cliff Wood will also join the ride.

The two-mile bike lane will eventually link to the Blackstone River Bikeway and the East Bay Bike Path and is part of an ongoing effort to make Providence a more bike-friendly city. So if you see more bikes out today, give them some space, and wave!

Also, coming up next week: Join the Woonasquatucket River Watershed Council (WRWC) on Wednesday July 23rd at 6 pm for a 5-mile after-work bike trip along the NEW PAVED OFF-ROAD portion of the Fred Lippitt Woonasquatucket River Greenway. The ride will begin and end at Hillside Avenue and Manton Avenue. Future bike Rides will happen on the 2nd and 4th Wednesdays of each month. Check the WRWC Web site for details and future plans.
