Walk Bike Irondequoit (WBI)
About
WBI wants to make Irondequoit NY friendlier for bikers and walkers alike! This is a citizen led organization advocating for safer transit conditions. We are a young organization, but we are positioned to make a difference in town. We have already notched a few small wins and hope to achieve more. Our group formed under another local group, Color Irondequoit Green.
New: Walk Bike Irondequoit’s Norton Ridge Trail Proposal (2024)
- Proposed north-south multi-use trail would connect Norton and Ridge via a new trail to the east of 590, with the goal of creating a safer route for cyclists, walkers, runners, and others to get around/over/under 104

Our goals:
- More trails and bike lanes: safer routes going North-South an East-West
- Improve road crossings: increase the accessibility of sidewalks
- Create BIKE BOULEVARD network: to avoid Titus and Ridge, we need designated streets with low traffic and speeds to create safe biking options
- Install new bike infrastructure: More bike racks and repair stations
