New Orleans Receives Honorable Mention as Bicycle Friendly Community

May 28th, 2008

Last month the League of American Bicyclists announced its Bicycle Friendly Community designations, and gave New Orleans one of ten “honorable mentions.” The Bicycle Friendly Community designation is awarded to communities with established records in two or more of the five categories which are known as the Five E’s: Education, Engineering, Enforcement, Encouragement, and Evaluation. Local cyclists, national experts, and League staff review the applications. For the complete list of Bicycle Friendly Communities and more information on the program visit bikeleague.org/programs/
