Two Belle Terre Elementary School students are being recognized for their creativity and dedication to bike safety, with their artwork now permanently displayed on the sidewalk near the school’s Belle Terre Parkway entrance. The winning designs were selected as part of the Florida Department of Transportation’s (FDOT) annual Bike Lane Challenge, a regional initiative that promotes bike safety awareness among elementary school students.

This year’s winners are:

  • Sean Nelson, 5th Grade – "Fire Bike"
  • Aubrey Engler, 2nd Grade – “Rainbow Creation”

Their colorful and imaginative artwork has been installed using thermoplastic on the sidewalk where many students walk and bike to school, serving as a daily reminder of the importance of safe cycling and the power of student expression.

The Bike Lane Challenge invites Kindergarten through 5th Grade students from across Central Florida to design unique bike lane insignias. Winning designs are selected for their creativity and message, and then installed at participating school campuses.

The City of Palm Coast congratulates these two young artists and extends its appreciation to FDOT for their continued partnership in creating safer, more vibrant school zones for our children.
