Step Up for Parking Protected Bike Lanes

What do we want? Parking-protected bike lanes!
When do want them? NOW!

Currently, PennDOT does not allow for the installation of parking-separated bike lanes on state-owned roads. Amending state legislation is an issue that the Bicycle Coalition, the City of Philadelphia, and our partners have been working on since the 2017-2018 legislative session. As an interim solution, PennDOT has permitted a pilot program to demonstrate protected bike lanes on selected state roads in Philadelphia.

Since 2017, we have worked with Bike Pittsburgh to advocate for bills named after Emily Fredricks (Philadelphia) and Susan Hicks (Pittsburgh) who were killed by drivers every legislative session to legalize parking protected bike lanes.

Join us in calling on our state legislators to save lives by passing HB1283. One life lost is one too many.
