Bicycle Activism in Latin America

August 8, 2019/in Breakout 6 | 11:15 am /by Dave Snyder

Since 2015, an entrepreneur, a photographer, two journalists and a high school student have teamed up to create Colombia’s BiciActiva Radio. They broadcast live radio and podcasts on the topics of urban cycling, safety, infrastructure, and other mobility, and the intersections of all those diverse stakeholders. Frank Aguirre and his partners at the Urban Cycling Collective BCSicletos work to reclaim the streets in La Paz, Baja California Sur, México.  The moderator will be Chris Morfas, formerly Executive Director of CalBike, currently a volunteer for Councilmember Mafe Rojas and the mayoral campaign of Claudia López.

First/Last Mile Planning and Implementation

August 8, 2019/in Breakout 6 | 11:15 am /by Dave Snyder

In 2014, LA Metro passed an award-winning First/Last Mile Strategic Plan. Since then, Metro has implemented the plan on its Blue Line. 

This workshop will discuss how to plan and implement improved access for transit stations in the context of new and emerging first/last mile mobility options. Learn how transit agencies, bike share companies, local governments, and advocacy groups work together to provide quality walk and bike infrastructure to connect with transit. Hear how first/last mile goes beyond infrastructure to provide new mobility options like bikeshare and scooters to connect communities to transit and to each other.

Economic Development and Safer Streets through Bicycle Tourism

August 8, 2019/in Breakout 6 | 11:15 am /by Dave Snyder

Bicycle tourism is a big business. When business leaders understand that, they develop a new incentive to make bicycling a safe and easy thing to do in their community. Plus, bike tourists with credit cards can be a huge economic boost to depressed rural communities. Hear from the experts in bike tourism about what you can do to take advantage of the bike tourist economy.

The Next Best Intersectional Urban Bikeway Projects

August 8, 2019/in Breakout 6 | 11:15 am /by Dave Snyder

For over 30 years, Normal Street in San Diego was supposed to be a community space by official designation. But only since 2012, when SANDAG began moving forward with its Bike Early Action Program, has there been serious planning. Now, with unprecedented collaboration among SANDAG, the City of San Diego, and local organizations, a community-driven plan to transform this space is in place.

In El Monte, ActiveSGV staff worked with community members, the Council for Watershed Health, Climate Resolve, and other nonprofits, to secure funding from the State Coastal Conservancy to transform Merced Avenue in the San Gabriel Valley into a 1.1-mile greenway. Currently at 60% design, the plan calls for a protected, sidewalk grade level multiple use trail that will capture stormwater, improve safety, and make it easier for people to be healthy. It’s a model of coupling transportation and water funding to achieve a more climate-resilient community.
