Dear Alan,
Join us for the first in our 2025 Summit Sessions!
The California Bicycle Coalition brings together the people making California a better place to bike every two years at the California Bicycle Summit, where important conversations about policy, advocacy, planning, design, and implementation happen. Now, CalBike will continue these conversations between our biennial Summits, with our Summit Sessions, a quarterly webinar series which will bring the important conversations right to your computer. Join leading planners, engineers, policymakers, educators, and advocates to learn how to improve bicycling in your community, and throughout the state.
Creative Approaches to Funding Active Transportation Infrastructure
12:00 PM PT, February 20, 2025 via Zoom
While the Active Transportation Program may be the most ubiquitous way to fund bicycling infrastructure, it is chronically oversubscribed and many worthy projects go unfunded. This Summit Session will explore other ways to fund active transportation infrastructure, including Affordable Housing and Sustainable Communities (AHSC, managed by Strategic Growth Council), Clean Mobility Options (CMO, managed by Air Resources Board), and State Transportation Improvement Program (STIP, managed by California Transportation Commission). AHSC has unlocked millions in funding for Active Transportation from the State's Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund, and is the second largest Active Transportation fund in California. CMO is a statewide program that empowers under-resourced communities to better understand and overcome mobility obstacles with vouchers for funding community needs assessments and clean, shared, zero-emission transportation projects. STIP is a multi-year capital improvement program of transportation projects on and off the State Highway System. Brief presentations will cover how each program works to fund increased bicycling infrastructure; a Q & A session following the presentations.
Presenters:
Brianne Logasa, AHSC Associate Planner, California Strategic Growth Council
Joey Juhasz-Lukomski, Program Manager, Shared Use Mobility Center
Mary McGuirk Lizarraga or Omar Atayee, San Diego Association of Governments
To Be Announced, California Transportation Commission
