About [Edit]
The Marin County Bicycle Coalition (MCBC) has been steadily improving our county’s road and path facilities for walkers and bikers since we formed in 1998. You’ve seen the impact of our advocacy efforts in each of our towns: permanent bike racks, bike lane striping, green-and-white bike route signs, road resurfacing, ‘sharrow’ road stencils, and so much more.
MCBC’s work improves our quality of life in many ways:
- increased opportunities for daily physical activity,
- teaching your children to be skilled and safe bike riders,
- reduced road congestion and greenhouse gas emissions,
- transportation equity for our low-income neighbors
Our goal is for 20% of all trips in Marin to be made by walking or bicycling. You can help – join MCBC today!
