2009 was a great year for bicyclists. We are excited about 2010 and are looking forward to a year full of exciting campaigns, advocacy, and education efforts.
Here is a sampling of some of our goals for this year:
- Launch Separated Bike Lane pilot on Huntington Blvd in Boyle Heights
- Work to get a bike lane installed on 7th Street
- Continue building relationship with LAPD by establishing an enforcement education workshop with LAPD
- Increase bike parking city-wide starting with 30-40 locations in LA
- Get Sharrows Pilot launched and on LA City streets
- Get a Better Bike Plan approved that includes timelines and substantially more designated bike lanes
- 4th Street Bicycle Blvd - Gain neighborhood buy-in to develop political support and have the city adopt a commitment to implement
- Create more opportunities for partnership with business community, environmental groups, and social justice groups
- Expand our reach to more cities across LA County, in addition to Glendale, Culver City, Long Beach and South Bay cities
- Create a bike repair space at Downtown Job Center and develop a Bike Repair Job Certificate program with the Bicycle Kitchen
- Improve policy for bikes on Metro transit
- Finalize the Resource Guide both in Spanish and English
- Ensure that 10th Annual River Ride is LACBC's best ride ever
