On March 5, 2020, CalBike presented a webinar on how to create connected, low-stress bike networks. You can view the webinar on this page.

The webinar provided information about new, free, publicly-available planning tools that you can use in your community to build out complete, low-stress networks. The webinar included representatives of the organizations that developed these tools about how they are being used today in active transportation planning projects across California.

Featured speakers were Brooke DuBose of Toole Planning, Rebecca Davies of PeopleForBikes, Torsha Bhattacharya of Rails-to-Trails, and Forest Barnes of the California Bicycle Coalition.

You can access the presentations from each speaker at the links below. We hope you are able to put these tools to use in your community!
