2016 was a year of investing in our core programs guided by the new Strategic Plan the Board of Directors adopted at the tail end of 2015: Advocacy, Community, and Education. These three focus areas deliver on policy and infrastructure change, fun community-building events, and training people how to ride safely, as well as other educational offerings.

This year was marked by City Council’s passage of a Complete Streets ordinance that Bike Pittsburgh had been pushing for for years. This policy is now in the running for best Complete Streets policy of the year from the National Complete Streets Coalition. Even if Pittsburgh doesn’t win, this is a solid policy that we should all feel proud of. We hope that by institutionalizing bike/ped into city governments around Allegheny County, the result will be better, safer streets for all in the long term. This in no way relieves us of our task to keep advocating for discrete bike/ped projects and closing gaps in the bike network using the latest engineering and planning standards. Undeniably, we need to do everything we can as a community to keep poorly designed streets like West Carson Street from happening in our neighborhoods again.

OpenStreetsPGH, our free (and car-free) event series, invites the community to get outside and be active, providing an opportunity to reimagine our streets as places for people, not just cars. Event

participation grew by 25 percent in 2016 more than the previous year, attracting approximately 55,000 participants over the course of three events. We also introduced a brand new route in a continuing effort to bring this event to more neighborhoods and to increase the diversity of its participants.

Our educational efforts continue to grow. While we strive to institutionalize our core curriculum in Pittsburgh Public Schools, our Positive Spin programming is teaching dozens of children throughout the school year how to confidently and safely get around Pittsburgh by bike, how to repair common mechanical issues, and how to get civically engaged in their communities.

Thank you for your interest in our local livable streets movement. With your participation and support we will continue making strides for safe streets for all.
