The League of American Bicyclists recently awarded the City of Highland Park with their Bicycle Friendly Community designation at the Bronze level. The League reserves this award for select communities with impressive commitments to bicycling. The Bike Walk Advisory Group, a dedicated group of volunteer residents, has worked with City staff and our sister governments over several years to improve bicycle education programs and implement elements of our Bike Walk 2030 plan. City Council has dedicating funds to fix gaps in our sidewalk network and improve our pedestrian and bicycling facilities over several years. I’m proud of our achievement, and look forward to continuing to work to make Highland Park a walkable and cyclist friendly community.
