Well, the dust has hardly settled on the Long Beach Bike Festival and Bike Long Beach has already begun its campaign to make our auto-centric city a little more bike friendly. Last night was the first meeting about establishing a Bicycle Boulevard on Vista Avenue from Nieto to Temple. This street was selected because children from nearby schools like Mann Elementary and Rogers Middle School could benefit from a safe thoroughfare to get to class each day. Not to mention all the pollution from Mom and/or Dad taxi services that would be reduced.
Tonight, Wednesday, April 29, another meeting will be held at 7 p.m. at Lowell Elementary School to discuss the various design options and provide a forum for public discussion. Here’s an idea! Why don’t you pedal down and give Vista a try for a before and after experience.
