Bike Meeting

So, I went to the UDOT Bicycle Corridor Planning Project Open House tonight. It was interesting.

The most important part was that the public had input on how and where the roads should be improved for cycling. I was able to write on a big map where I thought the roads need to be improved, and I left a comment sheet letting UDOT know how I'd like to see things done. I hope my little bit of input helps. It was pretty low key. They even had refreshments I could eat: trail mix and water (I skipped the cookie).

There are more of these meetings going on around the state. Please attend one of the meetings and let your voice be heard. The more cyclists show up, the more they will take us seriously!
