Council Member Koppell Rides Bicycle to City Hall for Bill Signing
Council Member G. Oliver Koppell biked to the Mayor's bill signing of two bicycle bills that will increase bicycling in the city by providing safe places for cyclists to park. The bills were approved by the City Council on July 29th. Koppell rode down the West Side Highway from 42nd Street and 12th Avenue across Chambers Street to City Hall for the bill signing. The entire trip took 35 minutes. "I am bicycling to City Hall to demonstrate how feasible bicycle commuting can be, "Koppell said. One bill, introduced by Koppell, requires parking garages and parking lots that have the capacity to hold one hundred or more motor vehicles to maintain space for bicycles. The second bill, co-sponsored by Koppell, mandates bicycle access to office buildings when requested by a tenant.
