Discussion on Elevating the City's Bicycle Friendly Level to Gold

The City of Venice Citizen Advisory Board is planning to discuss elevating the city's bicycle friendly level to Gold. This item is currently under review.

Such initiatives would likely require planning and design services, followed by construction phases for any physical upgrades. Local contractors, trades, suppliers, and service providers should monitor this discussion as it could lead to future opportunities in civil engineering, site preparation, paving, and specialized construction related to bicycle infrastructure. Early engagement with city planning departments may provide insight into upcoming needs.
