BikeShare Building community by placing rebuilt bikes in local communities where they’ll have the highest & best use

We abide by the credo “one person’s trash is another’s treasure.” By repairing discarded bikes, making them safe and rideable, we are not only keeping valuable items out of our landfills, but provide free bikes to children who would otherwise not have access, and to adults for whom reliable transportation is a barrier to employment, thus reinforcing the activity of biking to help foster community!

Our goal is to answer the question, can sharing free bikes provide tangible incentives for communication within a community? Can free bike sharing act as a catalyst to achieve cross-silo mentality while providing platforms and spaces created for organizations to intermingle, openly communicate, and share resources? As such, relationship building is the primary purpose of our program. Developing a bike culture, supported by diverse businesses and nonprofits, ultimately creates a beneficial transportation alternative and improves personal health and happiness, which in turn leads to better quality-of-life within a community.

→ What is a Traffic Garden? 🤷
A traffic garden, or safety village, is a park facility where children and families can learn the and practice the rules of the road. Traffic gardens are smaller-scale versions of real street networks and include realistic road signs, situations, and street markings designed to help teach new bicyclists and pedestrians how to safely use roads. Children and adults can use traffic gardens to practice walking, bicycling, and “driving” through roads and intersections in a space that is protected from vehicular traffic.

→ Where is the Traffic Garden in Chapel Hill? 🗺
In December of 2022 the Town of Chapel Hill installed its first Traffic Garden at Homestead Aquatic Center Parking Area, located at 300 Aquatic Drive, Chapel Hill. This Traffic Garden is open to the public year-round during park hours, which are from dawn until dusk.

→ How can I use a Traffic Garden? 🛣
There are many ways youth and adults can use the traffic garden. One of the most common uses is for learning the rules of the road by practicing navigating roads on a bicycle, tricycle, or scooter. People can also walk the course of the traffic garden, or practice using other non-motorized devices to pass through the marked roads and intersections.
