New Richmond bike route maps to help with commuting, alternative transportation
Richmond, IN – Summersault co-founder Mark Stosberg announced today that the new maps of bicycle routes in Richmond are available. The maps were created by Stosberg and others as a guide to bike commuting and safety in the Richmond area, and sponsored in part by Summersault.
Summersault encourages its staff to spend some of the company’s time working on volunteering or providing other community services, and Stosberg chose to use that time to work on the bike route maps. He worked with the local cyclist community to determine what routes were preferred, and how best to present that and related information in print form. Stosberg obtained sponsorship funding from various local organizations that will distribute the maps.
“Bicycling is often a viable way commute to work, while saving on gas and improving health,” Stosberg said. “While the City of Richmond has prioritized bike commuting in its Comprehensive Plan, the funds aren’t currently available to make much progress, so this map is a good first step accomplished by volunteers.”
Stosberg also offers a detailed account of how he worked to get the maps created so that other communities interested in bikes as transportation can learn from those efforts.
