Palm Beach County has dedicated March as Florida Bicycle Month to celebrate cycling, promote health, and encourage eco-friendly transportation. The Palm Beach County Board of County Commissioners, along with local agencies, is working together to make cycling more accessible to residents and visitors.
As per the Palm Beach Couinty website, the Palm Beach County Parks and Recreation Department, Palm Beach Transportation Planning Agency (TPA), County Engineering, and Palm Tran are collaborating to increase cycling awareness and accessibility.
