The Edgewood Neighborhood in Columbia is the first in the Midlands to get a bike boulevard. Located along a two-mile stretch of road near WA Perry Middle School down to Benedict College, the boulevard will help the community become more active. A bike boulevard is usually located in a low traffic area and without a lot of cross traffic, making bike riding and walking safer. This work is a continuation of Healthy South Carolina Initiative efforts, known as the Active Community Environment Special Project.
