January 2021 Newsletter

Happy birthday to us!

This month SCBC is twenty years old. A few of our founders talked about the old days at our annual member meeting, and staff reviewed highlights from 2020 and gave a sneak peek at plans for 2021.
We also held our Board election, meet them here.

Advocacy Updates

  • Santa Rosa has hired Bjorn Griepenburg as Active Transportation Planner - the first ever bicycle & transit focused job in Sonoma County government. The city also completed a study of improvements to Stony Point Road between Third Street and Sebastopol Road.
  • We've been working with city staff and neighborhood residents to resolve conflicts and maintain safe access between Annadel State Park and Oakmont.
  • SMART held a Listening Session focused on the multiuse path, which was well attended. They are in the design phase for the segment between Southpoint and Corona in Petaluma and we are working to make sure the alignment chosen is safe.
  • Caltrans is conducted a survey on bike/ped challenges on local state highways as well as the creation of a Bay Area Bike Highway.
  • Active transportation leaders and activists are optimistic about President Biden's appointment of Pete Buttigieg as Secretary of Transportation.

Check out our new campaign to encourage new riders to use their bike for trips within 2 miles! Everyone who takes the pledge will be entered into a drawing for cool prizes. This challenge is a great way to bring newbies into the tribe.
