Rockaway Boardwalk Bike Ban? Not So Fast
Briefly

Rockaway Beach's City Councilmember Joann Ariola is striving to find a balanced solution to proposed restrictions that would ban all bike use on a section of the boardwalk. Following community backlash against these measures, Ariola met with Parks Department officials and emphasized the necessity of a compromise that maintains the enjoyment of the boardwalk for cyclists while also ensuring public safety. Expectations are set for a new proposal from the Department before Memorial Day, with focus on community satisfaction and safety.
They're going to come back to the community with what would be a proper compromise that wouldn't jeopardize safety [and] people could still enjoy their boardwalk.
Councilmember Joann Ariola is actively working with the Parks Department to ensure that biking remains an option on the boardwalk amid proposed restrictions.
