A Challenge for Our Mayors

Foxx has challenged local officials across the United States to improve safety for bicyclists and pedestrians over the next year. The program supports the FDOT bike/ped safety and complete streets initiative, as well as moving BFF’s message in the spotlight. 
 
Even if cities are already focused on improving safety, there is always more than can be done and the seven challenge activities outlined in the plan provide great new ideas.
