Bike Walk Macon is pleased to announce it has received a $50,154.81 grant from the Governor’s Office of Highway Safety (GOHS).

The grant will help finance efforts to develop and execute educational programs that expand and promote bicycle and pedestrian safety to reduce the number of pedestrian and bicycle fatalities, injuries, and crash rates in Macon-Bibb County, Georgia.

Thank you to everyone who came out to the Rose Room to help us celebrate 10 years of Bike Walk Macon. We were honored to be surrounded by the people who’ve shaped this movement.

We brought Open Streets Macon to the neighborhoods again on September 12th and October 24th! This year, we continued our COVID-19 format and activated two smaller, residential routes on Boulevard and Napier Ave. in the place of one, miles-long route. These routes were selected through a nomination process and aimed at engaging the immediate neighborhood communities.

A special thank you to the North Highlands and Napier Heights neighborhoods for welcoming us and making this year's program a community-led success!

Joining Macon’s bike-friendly network is easy. Just fill out the quick application by Friday, October 22nd. If your location is selected, we’ll follow up to get you a bike rack and work together to create a plan for supporting you and Macon bicyclists.
