La Marque, TX

AARP Community Challenge Grant Year: 2024

Project Category: Bike Audits

Description: Older cyclists faced safety risks on local paths due to missing sidewalks and bike lanes. To address this, the city conducted bike audits that identified hazards and prioritized improvements. Volunteers age 50-plus contributed over 60 hours gathering input from residents and recommending changes such as bike lanes, sidewalks and better signage. The audits informed plans for new infrastructure on critical streets and raised awareness of pedestrian safety, strengthening the case for policy and funding support to advance long-term improvements.
