Marching Forward: A Month of Progress
March was a big month for WalkBike Frankfort—full of milestones, community connections, and exciting steps toward making our city more walkable, bikeable, and livable for everyone. Here’s a quick recap of what we’ve been up to!
Spring Members Meeting: Sharing Our Vision
Ally Hall presents at WalkBike Frankfort’s Spring Members Meeting.
On March 20th, we gathered at the Paul Sawyier Public Library for our Spring Members Meeting, and it was energizing to see so many familiar faces—along with plenty of new ones! We shared updates on our ongoing projects, discussed upcoming initiatives, and most importantly, listened to your ideas about how we can make Frankfort an even better place to walk and bike.

If you missed the meeting, don’t worry! We’ll be sharing key takeaways and next steps soon. And if you’re not yet a member, join us to help shape the future of active transportation in Frankfort!
Ribbon Cutting: Kings Center Bike Shed is Open!

On March 26th, we celebrated a major milestone—the official opening of the Kings Center Bike Shed! This project, made possible through partnerships and community support, provides a safe, secure place for bike parking and promotes cycling as a reliable way to get around.

A huge thank you to everyone who helped bring this to life—from our partners during Carbload for a Cause (Judge Executive Michael Mueller and Andrea Wilson-Mueller, Kenvirons, Pedigree Productions, and Inside Out Landscape Design), to the volunteers and donors who made it happen. This is just one step in our mission to make biking more accessible for all Frankfort residents, and we can’t wait to see how it benefits the neighborhood.
What’s Next?
With spring in full swing, we’re gearing up for more events, advocacy wins, and opportunities to get involved. Here’s how you can help:
Join us as a member or volunteer.
Spread the word—talk to friends and neighbors about the importance of walkable, bikeable communities.
Stay tuned for upcoming rides, advocacy updates, and more!
March showed us how much we can accomplish when our community comes together. Let’s keep the momentum going—see you out there!
