KDKA VIDEO on BikePGH’s new awareness campaign for drivers

Bicyclists Hope To Share The Road With Motorists

Will Groves doesn’t just ride a bike, he depends upon it.

For the young Duquesne University graduate and bar manager, it’s his primary mode of transportation over the streets of Pittsburgh.

“It’s been everything,” Goves said. “It’s how I get to work at least three days a week. It’s what I do for fun. I mountain bike and road bike.”

And a new bus shelter and billboard campaign is aimed at showing that Groves is not alone.

BikePGH is featuring a nurse, a carpenter, a student, a priest — even Pittsburgh Steeler wide receiver Antonio Brown — in a plea to drivers to be cautious and alert cyclists.

This campaign is just getting started with only four billboards and 15 bus shelters. We hope to buy much more media including bus ads, and potentially taking it to TV.
