Bike Lying on the Street

To avoid being involved in an accident in Margate, Broward County has taken the initiative to reduce bike accidents. Florida International University teamed up with Broward Metropolitan Planning Organization, and launched a new application known as BiKE Broward. The purpose of the application is for bicycle riders to map out their destinations in advance, according to their main interests. In other words, there are 5 different routes offered which are fast, short, have the least interaction with traffic, simple, and scenic. The application requires users to type in their start and end locations, and it will map out the route.

For Margate residents that bike for fitness or as a recreational activity, a safe alternative is to ride in parks that offer bicycle trails. The following is a list of parks in Broward County with bike trails:

  • Brian Piccolo Park located in Cooper City
  • C.B. Smith Park located in the city of Pembroke Pines
