From our friends at the SFBC:
If you live in San Francisco, you may know, the City has been stalled in making bike improvements for over two years, and we are appalled at the latest news–that the City is even further behind on getting the Bike Plan on track and striping new bike lanes and installing new bike racks.
We are infuriated that the City has failed again in its promise to make this critical work a top priority and that commonsense bicycle safety improvements wait for a wasteful bureaucratic knot to untangle.
3 WAYS YOU CAN HELP:
1. Come to our rally this Monday July 21 at 12:30pm at City Hall on the Polk Street Steps. Stop by on your lunch break and join a broad coalition of community groups as we share our frustration with these delays and urge the City to get back on track.
2. Attend the Land Use Committee meeting of the Board of Supervisors this Monday, July 21 at 1:00pm in City Hall, Room 263. We encourage every interested cyclist to give a 2-minute testimony on how these delays are endangering cyclists and hurting our city. Contact Neal@sfbike.org if you plan on attending.
3. Send emails to the Mayor and top officials to encourage them to commit to seeing bike improvements in San Francisco as soon as possible. Visit our Network page for email addresses and sample messages. These emails really matter!
If you love riding your bike in SF, speak up!!!
