In the short term we have<br \/>\ndecided to add at least one new bike rack to our premises. We are<br \/>\nseeking a location that will be more intuitive than the current 2 bike<br \/>\nracks that we currently have. We will also place on our website<br \/>\ninformation that would inform visitors about these rack and locations.\n<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>\nThe Aquarium encourages its employees to use alternate transportation<br \/>\nand we give incentives to those who bike to work. The Jones Falls Trail<br \/>\nhas been a project that the National Aquarium has been a strong vocal<br \/>\nadvocate for at public meetings. Ironically, we have insisted that the<br \/>\nCity place more parking racks along the trail as it develops. We have<br \/>\nalso been in support of the Middle Branch Bike Trail efforts that are in<br \/>\nthe planning stages near our new CALC development there.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nAgain, thank you for your input on how the Aquarium can support<br \/>\nbicycling and alternative transportation efforts.
