Airdrie officers hand out Dairy Queen coupons for safe e-bike riding
Enforcement officers are patrolling Airdrie's pathway network this summer, rewarding riders who follow the rules of the road.
Local enforcement officers in Airdrie are spending the summer on the city's pathways to encourage safe habits among e-bike and e-scooter riders.

The initiative targets the growing number of e-bike and e-scooter users on Airdrie's pathway system as the city looks to promote safer shared use of the routes over the summer months.
