The Earth Month Challenge for 2025 highlights a new artistic feature, with a transportation twist. Starting April 1 2025, "Cycle to a Signal Box" in Bethesda!

This is an easy challenge:

Ride a bicycle to one of the many new artistic traffic signal boxes in Bethesda and take a selfie or photo showing you/your bike and the box.

Email that picture to Kristen Blackmon at BTS, KBlackmon@bethesda.org, between April 1 - 30, 2025.

You are automatically entered to win a $100 Bethesda Buck e-gift card! Five winners will be selected.
