Pedestrian & Bike Safety Task Force

The primary goal of the Pedestrian & Bike Safety Task Force is to create a safer, more pedestrian/bike friendly community for all children and their families living in Lincoln and Lancaster County.

• Bike helmets available at health fairs, bike rodeos, and other community safety events for a discounted price, and children are taught how to wear them correctly. These tips on helmet and bike riding safety will help your family stay safe, Bike Safety Tips
• Public and parochial elementary schools are provided bike/pedestrian safety resources (e.g., activity sheets, helmets, websites, and classroom/assembly presentations). If your school is interested in hosting a bike rodeo, contact lisom@unlnotes.unl.edu from the Lincoln Northeast Kiwanis.
