The US Green Building Council recently hosted a seminar on bike paths and the use of bicycles as alternate transportation. Held at the Colegio de Ingenieros y Agrimensores in Hato Rey, nearly 100 people attended the seminar which featured a presentation by DTOP's Martha Bravo Colunga on "Sustainable Transportation for Livable Cities - Biking & Walking as Alternate Transportation."
Bravo's presentation which can be seen on La Masa's blog featured many examples of successful bike path initiatives from around the world as well as existing and proposed bike paths for Puerto Rico.
Surfrider caught up with Bravo after her talk to talk about Rincón's bike path. Bravo indicated that DTOP has been working on changes to the plan, but that these revised plans were not yet available for public review. These comments echo earlier correspondence from DTOP's Julio Rodríguez Cabrera and Thelma Valenzuela Sánchez.
