For immediate release April 2, 2009 Contact: Lisa Braithwaite, Austin Energy, (512) 322-6511 Charlotte Blum, Office of Communications and Public Information, (512) 974-2220 Pedaling toward a cleaner environment, the City of Austin is implementing the Employee Bike Share Program. The Austin Climate Protection Program has purchased automatic-shift bicycles that City employees can use to ride away from high gasoline prices, while steering toward a reduction in carbon emissions by minimizing the amount of vehicle miles driven. These bikes may be used for business needs, such as going to meetings, lunch or other activities. The cycles are located at several locations in the downtown area, which include: Town Lake Center, 721 Barton Springs Road. 811 Barton Springs Road. Austin Water Utility at Waller Creek, 625 E. 10th St. One Texas Center, 505 Barton Springs Road. City Hall, 301 W. Second St. Parks and Recreation, 200 S. Lamar This project is intended to address the need for the City to reduce its carbon footprint within departments as directed under the Austin Climate Protection Plan. Vehicular travel is a significant contributor to the City’s carbon footprint and this program will help in relieving carbon emissions. For further information on this program, please contact Lisa Braithwaite at 512-322-6511 or This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it |
