Hey, Orlando business owners: Looking for ways to entice more customers to come visit? What if you went to a store, but couldn’t lock your car? That’s the way some bicyclists feel at times. Good news!! The City of Orlando wants to install free bike racks at local businesses, encouraging people to ride their bikes, then have a safe place to lock them up.
The City is currently accepting bike rack requests, and they need more applicants. So strike while the iron is hot! As part of the Green Works Initiative, which focuses on improving sustainability in the city, bike racks will be installed outside of businesses all across the city. Increasing available bicycle parking will “drive” cyclists to your business. This not only will promote business development, but it frees up vehicle parking spots for drivers.
Did we mention it’s free? And it takes less than 15 minutes to fill out the application.
So many wonderful businesses in Orlando have already seen positive impacts of installing free bike racks including Project 7 Yoga, Orlando Meats and 1010 Brewing. So don’t miss out on this opportunity – fill out the request form ASAP and watch your business prosper! Don’t believe us that improving bicycle parking will drive business? Well, check out this article for more info.
