The New York City Department of Transportation (DOT), in partnership with the Cooper-Hewitt National Design Museum and the support of Google Inc. and Transportation Alternatives, is pleased to announce an international design competition for new bicycle parking for the City of New York.

Bikers in New York City now have some new bike lanes to enjoy while riding around town. Manhattan appears to have been the recipient of the most new bike lanes, with Brooklyn and the Bronx also getting a few.

GoogleMapsBikeThere.org was created to ask Google to help us make the world safer for bicyclists by adding bicycle routes to Google Maps.
