Current Projects

In addition to hosting regular community rides, providing safety education and encouragement services, and supporting the regional/statewide initiatives, BikeSGV is actively working to make a significant impact in the San Gabriel Valley, particularly in communities that have little to no bicycle infrastructure of any kind and suffer from higher than average public health disparities. Current projects include: 
  • The Bike Train
  • Cycling Without Age
  • E-Bike, SGV 
  • People Bike SGV, Blog
  • SGV Bicycle Education Center
  • SGV Counts
  • SGV Greenway Network
  • SGV Open Streets
  • Traffic Diversion Program
  • Women on Wheels (WoW)

Regional Bicycle Planning

SGV is home to over 30 jurisdictions, many of which are small in size and lack bicycle planning or infrastructure of any sort. Local residents that wish to cycle tend to cross multiple jurisdictions when commuting to work, shopping, or conducting everyday tasks, increasing the importance of developing city-level bike plans that will form a cohesive, inter-connected network of bicycle infrastructure for the region.  

This reality prompted BikeSGV organizers to recognize that the region was an ideal candidate for a regional master plan, akin to the one developed by seven South Bay cities in 2010-11. Since fall 2011 BikeSGV has educated local decision-makers, key stakeholders, and members of the public about the merits of regional coordination in the realm of bicycle planning, while seeking funding opportunities to make such a plan a reality for communities without the resources to otherwise hire a planning team. 

Thanks to the growing support for the concept among SGV decision makers, stakeholders, partner agencies, and funders, BikeSGV was able to solicit funding for and facilitate the five city SGV Regional Bicycle Master Plan project (www.dobikeplan.com) between 2012-14. The project, unanimously adopted by the Cities of Monterey Park, San Gabriel, Baldwin Park, El Monte and South El Monte in fall 2014, was made possible thanks to a partnership with lead agency Day One and funding from the LA County Department of Public Health. 

In Spring 2014 BikeSGV collaborated with the San Gabriel Valley Council of Governments (SGVCOG) to write a proposal for a second phase of our regional work. Dubbed the San Gabriel Valley Active Transportation Planning Initiative, the $643,000 proposal to the CA Active Transportation Program would fund the development of Active Transportation (i.e. biking and walking) plans for 5 SGV Cities (Montebello, La Puente, Irwindale, Monrovia, and Glendora), a regional greenway feasibility study, a regional route system, bicycle safety education classes in 6 cities, and data collection and evaluation. The project should launch in January 2017.
