DUMP the PUMP (leave your car at home)
Downtown Savannah is known internationally for its connectivity, pedestrian scale and walkability. Dump the Pump encourages Savannahians to experience downtown as it was originally planned and intended by General James Oglethorpe. Furthermore, alternative modes of transportation, such as bicycling, buses, walking, and carpooling, can reduce fuel consumption and traffic congestion while providing health, environmental, social and economic benefits to individuals and to the community. 
Dump the Pump is a day for us to get around without our cars. Try public transportation. Bike to a friend’s house or to the store. Just walk to lunch instead of driving. Savannah is a pedestrian oriented city with beautiful weather this time of year. Take advantage of it!!
