Bike lanes are “no longer in the public interest”
Bike lanes are “no longer in the public interest” according to the Department of Transportation. 

Secretary Duffy and his agency are sending cancellation notices to communities all across the country, eliminating hundreds of millions of dollars in grants that had been awarded to build bicycling trails, safer sidewalks, and other important transportation safety infrastructure. 

Congress must fight back. Ask your senators to stand up for safety projects for everyone whether they bike, walk, roll, take transit or drive. 

Last week, Secretary Duffy’s Transportation Department began sending official notification to communities canceling their grants, stopping some trail projects before they could be completed. 

The reason? The projects were deemed “hostile to cars.” State and local governments applied for these grants based on the needs and wants of their communities – and they were awarded this funding under the Biden Administration. Now, they are losing those investments, in addition to the economic development and safety improvements they would have funded. 

Please join us in asking Congress to take action.
