1. Contact Your City Council Member and Mayor
One of the most effective ways to advocate for bike infrastructure improvements is by reaching out to your local representatives. Let them know why safe and accessible biking is important to you and how it can benefit our city. Whether it’s through email, phone calls, or letters, your voice matters. Find your council member’s contact information here and reach out to the mayor’s office here.
