Educate the public on the benefits of non-motorized travel, and the rights and responsibilities of pedestrians, cyclists, and motorists. Toward this objective, we will work with other City, school, and non-governmental entities to devise an education/marketing program to “… [teach] cyclists of all ages how to ride safely in any area for multi-use paths to congested city streets as well as teaching motorists how to share the road safely with cyclists…” From League of American Bicyclists Web site
We will request that the City Commission encourage the Helena Police and the Helena bicycling community to establish better connections and communications; and for the Police to target enforcement to encourage cyclists and motorists to safely share the road.
