This short ride will begin at City Hall and end at the Expo at University of Washington Tacoma, and will be joined by several Tacoma City Council Members. How we get around has a significant impact on our greenhouse gas emissions. As we look towards a more sustainable Tacoma, we need to build a city where it is safe, accessible, and convenient to walk, bike, and bus instead of using personal vehicles for all trips.
