Amtrak Launches Roll-On Bike Service in VT
Amtrak has finally launched roll-on bike service on its Vermonter line! Here are Local Motion volunteers Nic Anderson, Andy Witt, and Dave Cain at the Waterbury station having just tested the new racks on the train to Waterbury.
Nic, Andy, and Dave had a lovely ride back from Waterbury, and confirmed that the new service works seamlessly. Enjoy the ride!
Bike Smart in the Snow!
Our Bike Smart trailer was at Cabot School last week. The snow didn't stop these kids from getting out and riding (and even learning how to ride!) Check out the pictures on Facebook.
Burlington Featured in 2016 National Report
Burlington is the smallest US city included in the Alliance for Biking and Walking's 2016 Benchmarking Report, a survey of the status of walking and biking across the country. The report covers all 50 states and the 50 most populous cities in the country, plus a handful of small to midsized cities chosen because of the strength of the bicycling movement in that community. Thanks to the efforts of Local Motion and our statewide partners, Burlington has made the cut since 2014! Read on to learn more about what this national report has to say about walking and biking in Burlington and across Vermont...
