Davis, California, Is First Platinum Bike-Friendly Community
WASHINGTON, D.C. (BRAIN)—The League of American Bicyclists recognized Davis, California, as a Bicycle Friendly Community at the platinum level, the first time the top designation has been awarded to any community in the United States.
Albuquerque, New Mexico, and Vancouver,
Washington, also were recognized at the bronze level, bringing the total number of communities in the program to 52.
“We're delighted to recognize Davis as an outstanding city for bicycling,” said Andy Clarke, executive director of the League of American Bicyclists. “For forty years, Davis has had one of the highest levels of bicycle use in the country—currently 17 percent of journeys to work are made by bike. This comes as a direct result of policies and choices they have made over the years. Bike lanes and trails permeate the community and enable people of all ages to ride to school, to work, and for recreation and errands. The city and university also have exemplary education, encouragement and enforcement programs.”
