Memphis celebrates Bike to Work Day to promote pedestrian and biking safety
With many different ways to get around Memphis, the Downtown Memphis Commission is working to educate Memphians.
Lauren Bermudez with the Downtown Memphis Commission told FOX13 that May is considered commuter month in the city. The downtown commission uses the month to inform commuters about the resources available to them.
“Not everyone has a personal vehicle for their use 24/7, you know, to make every trip,” said Bermudez.
Bike to Work Day is part of commuter month. Members of the downtown commission were spread across Memphis offering free breakfast and coffee to bikers. Richard Grover told FOX13 he chooses to ride a scooter every day.
