Updating Santa Barbara’s Bicycle Master Plan

�

By Olivia Davi / CASA

��

�� GET INVOLVED! �� Members of the community �� who wish to have their voice �� heard about this and other �� BMP projects should attend �� the City Council Public �� Hearing on the BMP �� Tues, February 23rd at 6pm �� at the City Hall Council �� Chamber (735 Anacapa St). ��

Green Lanes are

in place at SBCC and in Goleta and in communities up and down California.

State Street Phase 1

(Stearns Wharf - Mission) State Street serves as a north/ south spine through Santa Barbara, connecting the Uptown, Downtown, Funk Zone, and West Beach neighborhoods. The State Street project involves adding pavement coloring to the existing bicycle lanes along State between Mission Street and Stearns Wharf. Phase 2: Following Phase 1, green bike lanes may be added along De La Vina Street and Chapala Street, connecting the State Street green lanes between Padre Street and Calle Palo Colorado. Phase 3: In the future, new bike lanes may also be added along State Street between Constance Avenue and Calle Palo Colorado, and connect green lanes all the way to the city limits at Highway 154.

From Plan... to Implementation

�

What Else is Planned?

��

�� Volunteers working at Bici Centro’s Olive Street location �� ¡INVOLÚCRENSE! �� Los miembros de la �� comunidad que deseen �� dar su opinión sobre �� este y otros proyectos �� BMP deberían asistir a la �� Audiencia Pública del �� Consejo Municipal sobre �� el BMP que tendrá lugar �� el martes, 23 de febrero �� a las 6pm en Cámara del �� Consejo Municipal �� (735 Anacapa St). ��

Sinopsis de la actualización del Plan Maestro de Ciclismo de Santa Bárbara

�

��

The non-proﬁt Bici Centro opened a Do-It-Yourself (DIY) Bicycle Repair Shop on the Santa Barbara City College Campus in February 2015, and also offers a DIY bicycle workshop and thrift store on Olive Street.

��

Biking is popular in Santa Barbara... with some 20 plus retail bike shops as well as several cycling clubs. SB has even gained a bit of international recognition as a stop on the Amgen Tour of California.
