CalBike is committed to working to undo the structural racism and inequity built into California’s transportation infrastructure and policymaking. Transportation planning and policies have historically discriminated against, segregated, and displaced immigrants, low-income people, and communities of color, bolstering racial and class inequalities. Current mobility planning processes and decisions often perpetuate these harms.
CalBike is committed to advancing equity through infrastructure, expanding decision-making processes by bringing underrepresented communities to the table, working to end the over-policing of Black and brown Californians, and more. We recognize that it is only by addressing and redressing anti-Black violence and violence against Indigenous groups, women, and other marginalized peoples that we will be able to achieve the equity, inclusion, and prosperity that all California communities deserve.
We work to reframe and shift the dominant discourse on transportation planning and policies to relieve historical and current burdens on low-income communities of color and to provide affordable, reliable, and safe transportation options that improve neighborhoods and opportunities in marginalized communities. We collaborate with, learn from, and center marginalized peoples and intersectional allies on issues of mobility justice.
At CalBike, we advocate for bicycling not only because we love the bike as a machine but also because we love how bicycling can make our communities better: more equitable, prosperous, healthy, connected, and inclusive.
Join CalBike in advocating for the return of $400 million pulled from the Active Transportation Program in last year’s budget.
Quick-build will allow Caltrans to fix hazards to people biking and walking in weeks or months rather than years. It’s budget-friendly, employing low-cost and readily available materials. Caltrans streets are often the most dangerous in a community. Quick-build will give the agency a tool that will save lives.
With climate chaos around the corner, the time is now to make bold changes to our transportation infrastructure — by moving forward with bike highways. The implementation of bike highways will not only enhance the quality of life for many Californians but also contribute to environmental sustainability and traffic congestion reduction. We urge you to take immediate action to make California a leader in bike-friendly infrastructure
Caltrans-controlled roads that double as city streets are among the deadliest in California. The Complete Streets Bill of 2024 will require the agency to ensure safety for people biking, walking, and taking transit.
