The following note is from MPD Sgt. Richard Ehrlich:

Good Day to Everyone!

Below is the agenda for Friday's meeting on pedestrian/cyclist/motorist safety. The meeting will be at 6:30 pm located at 415 4th Street, SW in the community room.

Although we will be focusing on traffic locations in PSA 102, anyone who is interested in learning more about the "rules of the road" for road users is encouraged to attend.

In regards to Skip Coburn's earlier discussion about bike lanes, I came across this website that discusses the cycling friendly city of Copenhagen, Denmark road system.
