NYC Health + Hospitals/Coney Island gets big donation of bikes for essential workers
On Thursday, Councilmember Mark Treyger collaborated with the New York City Department of Transportation (DOT), New York City Economic Development Corporation (NYCEDC), and Citi Bike to deliver 20 Huffy bicycles to essential workers at NYC Health + Hospitals/Coney Island.
“We hope that even more essential workers will find the joy of commuting by bicycle, perhaps along Ocean Parkway’s incomparable bike path, America’s very first protected bicycle lane, found right outside Coney Island Hospital’s front door,” said DOT Commissioner Polly Trottenberg.
They also delivered DOT BikNYC helmets and Kryptonite bike locks to the workers.
