Recognized as one of just 21 U.S. communities to achieve the Gold Level Bicycle Friendly Community Award from the League of American Bicyclists, Hilton Head Island is committed to improving biking conditions through its investment in bicycling promotion, education, infrastructure, and pro-bicycling policies. In fact, Hilton Head Island is the only Gold Level community in the Southeast and one of only two towns on the East Coast to receive this designation.
The town will continue to construct pathways as scheduled in the capital improvement program. The Greater Island Council, a non-profit organization with 100 community leaders has identified biking programs as a key part of its mission to “help make Hilton Head Island a better place to live”.
