11/5/2015 0 Comments We're Hiring!BikeSGV is excited to share that we have been awarded a two year grant to assist cities across the San Gabriel Valley collect local data on walking and biking. As the map below highlights, many communities in the region have not conducted any bicycle and pedestrian counts, let alone more robust forms of data collection such as community street audits and surveys. This seemingly mundane task is absolutely critical insofar as highly competitive state grant funding for implementing infrastructure improvements such as bike lanes and paths favors applications and projects more heavily that have robust, current local data. The lack of such data places our communities at a disadvantage in applying for funding for walking and biking projects. Needless to say we are excited to announce we are looking for an individual to help us address this need and support a more pedestrian and bike-friendly SGV! Read on for details.
