Winning at safer streets, and at life: Our 2014 Advocacy in Review
1 law passed 5 transportation committees served 2 street plan evaluation rides 31 local advocates engaged 29 news stories 11 speaking engagements
Yay Bikes! has a long history of bicycle advocacy, but in 2014 we upped our game by shepherding a 3' Passing Law in the City of Columbus and partnering with the Department of Public Service to help its engineers design better bicycle infrastructure. Our new street plan evaluation rides have transformed plans for 4th and 3rd/Summit Streets and provided a solid template for similar rides going forward. This month we'll be providing commentary regarding OSU's bicycle accommodations plan and we're in conversations about training engineers in other municipalities statewide. Please consider an end-of-year gift to help Yay Bikes! expand our impact through advocacy initiatives and other programming next year.
Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
