FABB Hosting Guide Reception

Event to Celebrate  Bicycle Advocates Guide

On Thursday, November 4, Fairfax Advocates for Better Bicycling  (FABB) will host a reception to celebrate the launch of their statewide, “Guide for Reviewing Public Road Design and Bicycling Accommodations for Virginia Bicycle Advocates,”    The event will be held from 9 – 10:30 am at the Patrick Henry Library, 101 Maple Avenue, Vienna, VA 22180. 

The guide demystifies and streamlines the confusing road design, approval and funding  process in Virginia with easy-to-follow flow charts, handy check lists and explanations that make sense to those who don’t have a degree in engineering.  The guide is a great resource for those wanting to get involved  to influence local projects.

FABB is hosting the celebration to thank all of those who supported the project. 

“The local officials gave us many useful insights.  We appreciated all of their support in working to improve the quality of community dialog”, said FABB’s Bruce Wright. 

The guide was published in July of 2010.
