The Federal Road Safety Corps in Plateau State has urged residents to embrace cycling as a safe, affordable and environmentally friendly means of transportation, citing rising fuel costs, traffic congestion and growing environmental concerns, Arewa PUNCH reports.
The Plateau State Sector Commander of the FRSC, Corps Commander Dr Adelaja Ogungbemi, made the call during the commemoration of the 2026 World Bicycle Day in Jos.
The event, organised in collaboration with cycling clubs and civil society organisations, featured a bicycle rally and awareness campaign aimed at promoting cycling as a viable mode of urban transportation.
Ogungbemi said cycling offers a practical solution to transportation challenges in urban centres such as the Jos-Bukuru metropolis while also promoting healthier lifestyles.
