\"\"<\/a>Attention Hampshire County bicyclists, residents, and all!<\/strong><\/p>\n

Do you want to make our roads safer for bicycling? We have a great opportunity for you to do just that.<\/p>\n

At the request of the City of Northampton and Town of Amherst, and in partnership with Healthy Hampshire and the SPIFFY Coalition, the Massachusetts Bicycle Coalition (MassBike) is going to be assessing intersections the first two weekends of November (click here for an example of what the final report will look like).<\/p>\n

The first 45 minutes will consist of MassBike explaining how the assessment tool works and then doing a \u201ctest\u201d assessment of an intersection. Then we will send you off to do some assessing of your own! We are hoping to knock out as many of the intersections as possible the first weekend, and finish up the following weekend. But without your help, we can\u2019t do it.<\/p>\n

If you can spare even a couple of hours during the times below, please RSVP to Price@MassBike.org or call (617) 542-2453. And tell your friends!<\/p>\n
