Walking and Biking Tips

 

Walking and bicycling are clean, healthy and fun ways to travel and exercise. That’s why the San Antonio-Bexar County Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) and our transportation partners are celebrating 14 years of walking and bicycling with our "Walk & Roll" Fest in May 2010. Exact location and date coming soon.   And stay tuned for the Challenges coming later in the year.

The MPO encourages the use of healthy transportation such as bicycling, walking, car/vanpooling, and busing.  Show your support of safe and healthy cycling in the San Antonio region by supporting the Bicycle Mobility Advisory Committee and the Pedestrian Mobility Advisory Committee by participating in the Walk & Roll events. 

Other healthy activities are included on this Walk & Roll website for your information.  To submit your organization's event for inclusion on our website, please click here.  For more information email or call Lydia Kelly at kelly@sametroplan.org, or (210) 230-6911.
