December Update and Upcoming Events

Alhambra City Council Moves Step Closer to First City Bike Plan
Thanks to the outpouring of community support for the development of the City’s first bike-friendly amenities, the Alhambra City Council directed staff to move forward with planning an official Alhambra Bike Plan. In the coming weeks a bid should go out for a plan, which will facilitate the creation of a city-wide network of bike friendly streets, as well as qualify the City for additional funding streams for bike infrastructure.

Thanks again to all the local residents who took the time to attend public meetings and/or write to their elected representatives.  Stay tuned for more information.
