Great news on our Bronze Status and Public Transit Funding for bike shelters! This plus the 705 Path may be pushing us closer to Silver! If story gets written, I also will spread the word on WV Rails-to-Trails Council news and sure Kasey would like it for Connecting Communities. Thank you for all of your good work. Ella

Gday guys, terrific news. If you do pull a short story together I'd love to get it sent out to The Hub's list. Definitely something to inspire other communities in WV looking to make similar improvements. Jake.

I received this in the mail today, so I guess it is official.
The City of Morgantown is a Bronze Level Bicycle Friendly Community.
The physical award (piece of paper) is with the City Manager’s Office for framing. We could ask to have the Communications Director put something out. I know Mr. Kelly was excited about a photo-op with signage, but signage has a cost: https://bikeleague.secure.force.com/storepage?cat=BFC https://bikeleague.secure.force.com/storepage?cat=BFC
