At Bikemore, we believe a great city is a connected city. We focus on putting people before cars and expanding opportunity for all of Baltimore's residents.
Polling from @CMTAlliance & @railstotrails conducted just before the primary election shows Baltimoreans want safer street infrastructure & more transportation options.
✅ Majority support for building the Greenway Trails Network, dedicated bike lanes & the Bike Master Plan.
Congratulations to Tony Bridges on his appointment as the next MTA Administrator. We issued a joint statement with @bikemorebmore laying out our hopes for the transition. https://t.co/CW3ssGlKNh
"Others questioned who would benefit from the proposed bike lanes and expressed concerns about losing on-street parking..."
The project adds a lane of full-time on-street parking where none exists today.
On July 22nd, join Baltimore Families for Safe Streets in honoring the lives of Brandon McMurrin and Jordan Bright, killed on the same day on corridors where long-promised street safety improvements may have prevented their deaths.

Today Baltimore Families for Safe Streets and Bikemore were out in the heat canvassing Washington Street where Brandon was killed. Enough is enough.

Brandon was 9 when this project was proposed. He was 13 when it was supposed to be built.
His whole future is gone because of Baltimore City's inaction.
Morgan State freshman Brandon McMurrin was killed while scooting home from work by the driver of an SUV on Washington St, where a protected bike lane has been promised since 2017.

@SteveBurke2000@jedweeks Last night a Jaguar went through a building a block north. It was only a matter of time until another person was killed.
At the budget hearing when we learned the project was delayed another year we demanded that decision be revisited.
The time was yesterday.

Tonight we hosted our second Stopp Storytelling event, Commuter Chaos: True Stories from the Streets, Seats, and Sidewalks.
Thank you to our partners at Stoop, our storytellers and musicians, and Checkerspot Bchcjersprewery for hosting our sold out event!
Baltimore fought for this. Maryland is accelerating nearly $25 million to jump-start a new bus division - the linchpin of the BMORE Bus plan and a major step toward expanding service for the workers, students, and families who depend on it every day. Grateful for Del. Edelson and every advocate and rider who packed hearings and rallied in Annapolis to make this happen.
@1stDistrictMark Interested in joining one of these bike buses or starting your own at your local school? DM us or reach out to Cora Karim, our family biking coordinator!
Our former Bikemore board secretary's Roland Park bike bus is rapidly growing, and @1stDistrictMark is leading a small and mighty group from Highlandtown.
Our family biking organizer is helping Armistead Gardens, Hampden, Medfield, and Reservoir Hill.

A great kick off to Bike to Work Week here in Baltimore! The city has committed to delivering 17 miles of new or improved protected bike lanes over the next 3 years! @Bike2WorkMD
“The “hardening” of some bike lanes means riders might soon see the plastic flex-posts on Maryland Avenue or Monument Street swapped for concrete markers.”
Baltimore needs:
- Dedicated bus lanes
- Bus boarding islands
- Concrete protected bike lanes
- Bike signals
- Curb ramps.
At today's Bike to Work Week press conference, Bikemore Executive Director Jed Weeks, @mayorbmscott, and @bmorecitydot Director Veronica McBeth announced the city's commitment to build and enhance 17 miles of all-ages bike lanes and trails over the next 3 years.
