SLOBicycleCoalitionLogo San Luis Obispo County Bicycle Coalition celebrated the adoption of a two-year budget that will add significant improvements to SLO’s bicycle network. According to SLOCBC, “The budget adoption is the culmination of over a dozen public meetings where hundreds of residents made their voices heard about the need for continued bicycle and pedestrian improvements. The budget adoption also marks the culmination of the Bicycle Coalition’s own Bike the Budget campaign, an organized effort to continue improving the city’s bikeways.” The budget will make significant progress on the Railroad Safety Trail, funds bicycle education efforts, staffing of a part-time bike programs assistant, and a fund for miscellaneous bikeway improvements.
