Volunteer for the Bicycle and Pedestrian Winter Conditions Study Pilot

Via a December 10 City of Minneapolis e-newsletter:

The City of Minneapolis is seeking volunteers to participate in the 2015-16 Bicycle and Pedestrian Winter Conditions Study Pilot. As part of a larger bicycle and pedestrian winter maintience research project, the City is conducting a field study to document the winter conditions of our bicycle and pedestrian facilities. The study will include over 90 locations across Minneapolis. We need gracious volunteers such as yourself to help us document the snow and ice on our streets, sidewalks and trails. Volunteers will sign up to conduct 5-minute observations at locations of their choosing (pick one on your commute!) throughout the winter.

To learn more and sign up to volunteer, simply complete this form.

The form will take less than 10 minutes and provides an overview of volunteer tasks and responsibilities before giving you the opportunity to sign up. There are a limited number of volunteer spots at each location, so don't hesitate to sign up if you are interested.

As always, thanks to all our wonderful volunteers. We could not do this without you!
