Approximately 15 advocates from across the state trekked to Washington, DC to attend the 2015 National Bike Summit, March 9-13. Advocates met with Congressmen to seek their support for continued funding for walking and bicycling in a federal transportation bill, support from the House (HB1274) for Vision Zero; and support from the Senate (S705) for the Transportation Alternatives Program Improvement Act (TAPIA_FAQ).
