Dear Ken,
 
You have probably heard in the news that Maine has seen an alarming spike in pedestrian fatalities over the past two years, and unfortunately, this year looks to be on record to maintain this upward trend. In an effort to reduce the number of pedestrian deaths on Maine streets, the Maine Department of Transportation has partnered with the Bicycle Coalition of Maine and communities throughout the state to produce a series of Pedestrian Safety Forums.
 
We hope that you can attend to lend your input on pedestrian safety at the upcoming forum in Rockland on December 6!

WHAT: Rockland Pedestrian Safety Forum
WHEN:  Wednesday, December 6th, 6pm-8pm
WHERE: Oceanside East High School Cafeteria, 400 Broadway, Rockland

We want to hear Rockland residents' feedback on dangerous locations and habits of pedestrians and motorists to help MaineDOT identify areas of concern that impact pedestrian safety. Participants will receive some tips on safe road behavior as well as reflective safety gear.
 
Please help to publicize the forum by sharing the flier and Facebook event with your colleagues, friends, and neighbors:
 
 
For more information, please contact my colleague, Darcy Whittemore at da...@bikemaine.org or call the Bicycle Coalition of Maine at 207-623-4511.
 
See you there!
