Year 2022
Level City or Town
State(s) All States
Policy Areas Civil Rights, Transportation & Mobility
Cities that have been systematically disenfranchised lack protected bike lanes, sidewalks, and safe crossing points. This report identifies the biased enforcement of bicycling laws and provides guidance on decriminalizing biking in cities. Best practices include working with local bike shops to ensure riders are informed on equipment requirements and training police officers on transportation system user choices.
