Long Beach Lifts All Restrictions On Boardwalk Biking
Cyclists were previously prohibited from riding on the weekend. Now, if the boardwalk is open, you can bicycle.
LONG BEACH, NY — The City of Long Beach announced today that it was lifting all bicycling restrictions for the boardwalk.
The boardwalk was closed earlier this year during the height of the coronavirus shutdowns. When it reopened, bicycling was only allowed in the morning and evening hours.
In June, the city expanded the restrictions to allow cyclists on the boardwalk at any time during the weekday, but bicycles were still prohibited on the weekends.
