PRESENTATION: MAY IS BIKE MONTH AND CLEAN COMMUTE MONTH Mr. Nate Evans, Bicycle & Pedestrian Planner for the City of Baltimore, provided an overview of current initiatives to improve bicycle and pedestrian access throughout the City. Mr. Evans reported that the City is implementing the 2006 Bicycle Master Plan. Since adoption, the City has expanded infrastructure in the following ways: building the first bike boulevard on Guilford Ave, 100 miles of bikeways, added a green bicycle path, bike-friendly speed bumps (these also accommodate emergency vehicles), and bike/bus lanes. There is also a bike box in Wyman Park and they are working on additional phases of the Jones Falls Trail. Baltimore has experienced a 42% increase in bicycle commuters. They are now in the process of updating the master plan for As part of this effort, they are accepting input from residents and individuals who frequent the city. This survey is online at Mr. Evans also reported that the MD Department of Transportation awarded a grant to help launch the City s Bike Share program. Bike sharing allows short-term bicycle rental to replace the need for a car when taking short trips in and around urban areas. With stations established at key locations across the city, users take a bike from one station, pedal to their destination, and return the bike to another station. The City will be working with B- Cycle to implement the Bike Share system. The expected launch is fall He also noted that the City has updated their bicycle map.

Next, Ms. Tierra Brown, Marketing Coordinator, from the Baltimore City Department of Transportation shared information about the various alternative transportation initiatives in Baltimore City. These include RideShare, Guaranteed Ride Home, School Pool, VanPool, and the new car-free incentive program.
