This past May the City of Columbus celebrated National Bike Month and hosted a Bike to Work Day event outside of City Hall. Riding a bike is an easy way to help reduce pollution in our community and support our Columbus Climate Action Plan goals. These events helped raise awareness of the Bike Plus Plan, a plan by the City of Columbus to create a safe, connected, and comfortable network for people to bike, scooter, skate, and roll in the city. A draft Bike Plus vision map is out for comment now so be sure weigh in and stay connected with the Columbus Bike Plus Plan [ https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/fa0d7f19855a46f5a67ad741da665439?utm_medium=email&utm_source=govdelivery ]!
