DelDOT Promotes Bicycle Month

Bicycling is an inexpensive and environmentally sensitive alternative to driving

Dover
-- The Delaware Department of Transportation (DelDOT) is 'pedaling' Bicycle Month in May. During the month, DelDOT will sponsor a variety of events to raise public awareness about bicycling as an inexpensive and environmentally sensitive alternative to driving.

"Studies show that most motorists take trips that are three miles or less. For these people, bicycling is maybe a viable means of transportation for some of these trips. It's more affordable and greener than driving a vehicle. There are health benefits and environmental benefits for bicyclists," said DelDOT Senior Planner Anthony Aglio.
