Petition Update: Help Spread The Word To Get Better East West Bike Routes in Pasadena

We have 575 signatures so far for our petition to the City of Pasadena for better east-west bike routes. We also made the Sunday Front Page for the Pasadena Star News and we're on Curbed LA! We rely on you for support, so please add your name to the petition if you haven't done so. We're aiming for 1000 signatures from residents in Pasadena and the San Gabriel Valley!


We also have met with Rich Dilluvio and other staff members of City of Pasadena who are behind the Pasadena Mobility / Bike Plan and they really like our petition. They say that our show of support for bike lanes in Pasadena helps them when they present to City Council. They are applying to LACMTA for funds to build more complete streets and to extend bike lanes and are strongly considering the routes we have suggested. 

 

Unlike Long Beach, the City of Pasadena has not yet committed city funds to implement more bike infrastructure, but with your support we can help urge the issue to a higher priority.

 

Special thanks to LA Bicycle Coalition and BikeSGV chapter for supporting us and helping to spread the word!
