Letter: Support for 2-Way Cycle Track on Highway 101 in Encinitas
Circulate submitted a letter in support of Encinitas City Staff's recommendation to create a two-way cycle track along the west side of South Coast Highway 101 between Chesterfield Drive and the Swami’s pedestrian crossing. This project will give bicyclists a safe way to access the beach and travel between the cities of Encinitas and Solana Beach. Separating bicycle traffic from car traffic is the most effective way of ensuring that people of all ages and abilities can safely ride their bicycles. Read the full letter here. [pdf]

Letter: Update to SANDAG Reboot: Proposed Final Regional Plan Features
Circulate sent a letter to the SANDAG board explaining the changes between the Draft 2021 Regional Plan and the Proposed Final 2021 Regional Plan. This is a follow on to our report, SANDAG Reboot. In the short term, both plans implement significant frequency improvements to bus and rail service, and a system of RAPID busses. Both Plans also include speculative revenues in the later years of the plan, which may jeopardize SANDAG’s ability to deliver on what it promises. Read the full letter here. [pdf]

Letter: Support for Vision Zero and a Quick Build Network in Budget Letters
Circulate submitted a letter urging City Council members to include additional funding for the Safe and Sustainable Transportation All Ages and Abilities Team (STAT team) to create additional quick build bikeways in San Diego. These bikeways should be prioritized in the areas where the most injuries and deaths occur. In addition, they should form a network that offers bicyclists of all ages and abilities safe paths throughout the urban core, and serve as a proof of concept for future projects throughout the city. Put simply, quick build will save lives. Read the full letter here. [pdf]

Encinitas City Council has an awesome 2-way cycle track on its agenda for TONIGHT, Wednesday December 8, and it needs your support!
The Traffic Commission rejected it, in favor of letting a state grant go and the city putting in unprotected, paint only bike lanes. On this 40 mph road, paint only bike lanes are unsafe. We need the cycle track!
