Tucson’s Living Streets Alliance is the top bicycle and walking advocacy organization in the country and they’ve got the award to prove it.
LSA won the Alliance for Biking and Walking Advocacy of the Year Award at this week’s National Bike Summit.
The award recognizes organizations dedicated to improving biking and walking. Here’s the description:
This award goes to a bicycling and/or walking advocacy organization who, in the past year, made significant progress. Their leaders have worked tirelessly together to grow and strengthen their organization and fulfill their mission. The proof of their efforts is in the growth of their capacity and programs and the victories they have achieved for biking and walking in their state/community.
LSA deserves this. They’ve certainly worked tirelessly to make walking and biking better in Tucson. They’re creative, and they understand the importance of blending infrastructure planning with fun community events.
