Park City BIKE SATURDAYS
Park City's traffic problems aren't going to improve by throwing more money to build more infrastructure just to accommodate cars. It only encourages more driving. At some point, people need to take responsibility and change their behavior by trading out their cars for bikes and using public transport to its full capacity, and that goes for residents, visitors and employees.
