East Bay Bicycle Coalition

Advocacy Category: 

To promote bicycling as an everyday means of transportation and recreation

Mission in Action

The EBBC's volunteers and affiliated clubs successfully advocated for bicycle access on BART trains soon after we were founded in 1972. Bicyclists are also now accommodated on all local and transbay buses, ferries, local Amtrak trains, and on shuttles over bridges that do not currently offer direct access. We advocate for direct access on the seven transbay bridges that serve the East Bay counties. Much still needs to be done to improve transit access, make bikeway improvements and offer secure bicycle parking at transit and most destinations. A great deal of our efforts focus on the development of local bicycle transportation plans in the 33 cities where we represent bicyclists' interests. We further promote the formation of grassroots Bicycle Advisory Committees (BACs) to review plans and prioritize funding. The EBBC also advocates for countywide and regional bicycle planning and funding. We faithfully represent all bicyclists' interests. Join us!
