City of Bloomington Local-Motion Grant Program application opens

BLOOMINGTON – The City of Bloomington is proud to announce the opening of the 2023 Local-Motion Grant Program application cycle. Aimed at advancing pedestrian and bicycle mobility in the city, this program will provide direct support to initiatives that focus on local activities to foster a diverse and vibrant walking and bicycling culture.

As a community that values sustainable transportation options, the City of Bloomington and the Bicycle and Pedestrian Safety Commission believe that creating a walk- and bicycle-friendly environment goes beyond infrastructure development. It involves encouraging and educating the community about the benefits of active transportation modes.
