About thirty people turned out last night for the Charleston Moves/Civic Design Center-sponsored presentation by Hans Moor, a cyclist-advocate from Ottawa, Canada.
Moor discussed how cyclists are transforming his home city as well as how cycling has transformed his native country, the Netherlands.
Moor said that even in wintertime, snowy Ottawa, people are riding their bikes for transportation.
Among the innovations he and his advocacy group have achieved in Ottawa is the installation of a number of bike traffic sensors, some of which automatically show bike traffic on their web site.
Charleston Moves is investigating use of the same sensors here.
Hans is the Senior Economic Officer in the Dutch Embassy to Canada.
Charleston Moves will present similar programs whenever possible. Please don't hesitate to make suggestions.
