Car Less Ohio

Construction is set to begin on a regional bicycle hub in downtown Dayton, Ohio. The project is part of the third phase of the RiverScape park project, which also includes a covered outdoor entertainment pavilion that will convert to an ice rink in the winter.

The bike hub aims to provide facilities for daily commuters, as well as recreational users of the area’s 270 miles of trails. The hub will have secure bike storage, lockers, restrooms, and showers.

Official ground-breaking is scheduled for April 7, with expected completion in the spring of 2010. Read the full story by Steve Bennish of the Dayton Daily News.
