Activate Alliance, a community group working to make Alliance a safer place to walk, bike, and roll, is excited to offer a bike repair station for community use and sponsored by Healthy Blue.
The station is conveniently located at 18th and Box Butte on the south side of Laing Lake and is available for anyone needing spur-of-the-moment maintenance and repair. The station offers bike mounting, nine common bicycle tools tethered to the station, an air pump, an ADA-compliant design, and a QR code for maintenance instructions for viewing from a smartphone.
“We’re grateful to Healthy Blue for their sponsorship and to Activate Alliance for their continued enhancements around the community to support safe access for walking, biking, and rolling,” said Janelle Visser, Injury Prevention Coordinator with Panhandle Public Health District.
