“There’s a reason a single protected #bikelane in #WashingtonDC, is suddenly drawing attention from #cyclists hundreds—or thousands—of kilometres away. Because for many advocates, this isn’t just about one safe protected #bikelane. It’s a precedent”
"if a popular and very well-used protected lane can be removed there, no project is safe”
"Across North America, #bike #infrastructure has grown rapidly over the past decade—but it often remains vulnerable” https://momentummag.com/a-bike-lane-fight-is-sparking-rallies-across-the-united-states/

Did you miss April 6 webinar from #California #Bicycle Coalition with April Webster and Wesley Bexton of #Caltrans, "When #Streets Fail: Designing #Bike #Infrastructure for #Heat, #Flooding, and Usability”?

We found it interesting and very important. "A #BikeLane that floods every winter isn't infrastructure. A #sidewalk that bakes at 110 degrees by noon isn't usable, and a #street that only works for part of the day isn't really working.” The info on #trees alone will interest many of you.

Later this week, #CalBike will post webinar recording, with closed captioning. Check for it at https://www.calbike.org/events/webinar-series/ or on CalBike’s Youtube channel.

If you’re able, we urge you to register for 2026 biennial California Bicycle Summit, April 23-24 in Sacramento: https://bikemonterey.org/april-23-24-2026-california-bicycle-summit.html

When Paint Isn’t Protection
"The incident also highlights a core issue in #transportation planning: the limits of painted #bikelanes.
The #cyclists involved were riding in a designated #bikelane – exactly where they are supposed to be. But as the video makes clear, a painted line offers little defense against a driver willing to ignore it.
Advocates have long argued that preventing this kind of incident requires more than paint” https://cal.streetsblog.org/2026/03/31/viral-newport-beach-road-rage-incident-leads-to-arrest-highlights-limits-of-painted-bike-lanes
