pedaling toward a future full of bicycles

Effective advocacy in Sacramento requires robust digital organizing tools, and a skilled team. If we don’t raise the funds we need now, CalBike won’t be able to continue fighting for bikes, safety, and clean transportation. Donate $20 today at https://t.co/qlMaLVPu8L

[Assemblymember Rick Chavez Zbur @AsmRickZbur]

Today, I introduced #AB891, a bill to launch a quick-build bike lane & intersection pilot program—helping Caltrans make our highways safer, faster. Traffic fatalities & injuries are rising, and we can’t afford to wait years for safety improvements. TY to sponsor @CalBike!

@SFMTA_Muni has begun enforcement of the state requirement for daylighting at intersections starting with a warning and an initial $0.00 ticket.

New parking protected bike lanes completed in front of City Hall.

[Bike East Bay @BikeEastBay]

We're excited for the @ScraperBikeTeam campaign to convert a legacy @SFBART train into a new bike shop and club house in East Oakland!

Scraper serves 240+ kids each year teaching bike safety, mechanics, and customization. Support them at https://t.co/NDOecXDdDn

[Costa Mesa Jaywalker @JaywalkerCM]

Costa Mesa announced that they will be REDUCING the speed limit on 76 street segments, thanks to AB-43. Last year we reduced the limits in 17 segments.

Great takes on FB! 🤣

Happy early Halloween from the tallest Clipper Card!

I’ve worked with & respect Jeff Tumlin, but no fatal crash is unavoidable. That’s a core principle of Vision Zero.

Sidewalk extensions, center line hardening, leading pedestrian intervals, many other adjustments are available besides speed humps.

CalBike proudly supported the passage of The Daylighting Law (AB 413) in fall 2023. Starting January 1, 2025, this law will clear 20 feet around crosswalks, boosting visibility and saving lives at intersections across California. @alex_lee

[Walk San Francisco @walksf]

We are collecting about 300 pairs of shoes to build a temporary memorial for this year's World Day of Remembrance for Road Traffic Victims.

Shoes can be dropped off at Walk SF’s office on Mondays and Wednesdays between 10:00AM - 4:00PM before November 8.

World Day of Remembrance is an annual event honoring those who have been hurt and killed in traffic crashes.

This year's World Day of Remembrance will be from 5:00 - 6:00PM on Sunday, November 17, 2024, on the steps of City Hall.

[Robert Prinz @prinzrob]

Check out this quick-build pedestrian path installed on Halleck St south of Sherwin in Emeryville, to address a sidewalk gap as part of a routine paving project using only paint, flex posts, and preformed concrete curb stops.

[CalBike @CalBike]

The California Transportation Commission is rushing SHOPP guidelines before integrating SB 960’s Complete Streets law, delaying vital bike and pedestrian safety improvements. Advocates urge the CTC to pause. Safe streets can’t wait. https://t.co/PBnILZSClW

@MorfasChrisN Thanks Chris! Involved wonderful insights from @MinetaTrans

[John J. Bauters @JohnBauters]

Excited to see our latest Level 5 traffic diverter on the Horton St Bike Blvd at 53rd St. Proud to have negotiated this closure, added curb-height bike lanes, and new pedestrian connectivity across the UPRR as part of the Emery Yards project. Safe streets save lives!

[CalBike @CalBike]

Santa Barbara's proposed bike ordinance aims to improve safety but risks unfairly targeting low-income riders. CalBike advocates for equity and the preservation of mobility choices in these changes @SB_BIKE
