Task force on safety looks to ban bikes in Wisconsin town only as a last resort

cycling

Based on the story in the Stevens Point Journal, the talk during a Town of Hull Public Safety Task Force focused on cooperation more than regulation.

The task force generated national attention from cycling advocates when it drafted an ordinance that would ban bikes from the town's 82 miles of roads. That prospect drew two dozen people to a meeting to review the task force recommendations for making the town safer for bikers, motorists and pedestrians.

Based on the discussion, the town will focus on education, enforcement of laws and installation of traffic calming devices, instead of banning bikes.
