Alexandria’s been expanding its bike infrastructure and next week’s Bike to Work Day could be a perfect opportunity to check that out.
Bike to Work Day is an annual tradition encouraging locals to ride a bike to their offices. This year, Bike to Work Day is on Friday, May 17.
The City of Alexandria’s Department of Transportation & Environmental Services and other community partners will be hosting pit stops around the city for cyclists to stop at.
“The City of Alexandria’s Department of Transportation & Environmental Services will host the pit stop at Market Square (301 King Street) in addition to six other community-led pit stops across the city,” the city’s website said. “Register early to get this year’s t-shirt and stop by the City’s pit stop for free giveaways, food, coffee, and more!”
Pit stops around the city are planned at:
- Market Square at Alexandria City Hall (301 King Street)
- John Carlyle Square Park (300 John Carlyle Street)
- Del Ray/ Colasanto Park (2704 Mount Vernon Avenue)
- Fairlington Centre (1711 Centre Plaza)
