Safer Streets Coming to Salem Thanks to New Street Sweeper

Without a street sweeper small enough to navigate protected bike lanes and multi-use paths, plans for physical barriers between vehicles and riders of all ages and abilities would remain out of reach to Salem’s residents. Recognizing this need, the SBV team set out to find a source of funds that could help the City provide protected bike lanes while still complying with their maintenance requirements. SBV identified the funding opportunity, encouraged the City to apply, and wrote a letter of support.
