Bike Friendly Community
The League of American Bicyclists created the Bicycle Friendly Community Program to recognize cities, towns, and communities that are taking action to build bicycle-friendly infrastructure. As a Silver Award recipient, the City of Long Beach is one of 450 recognized Bicycle Friendly Communities and over 100 Honorable Mention communities in the United States. Long Beach has been recognized for its innovative infrastructure, bike share program, Bike Month events, and overall bicycling culture. With a focus on the 5 E’s (Engineering, Education, Encouragement, Enforcement, and Evaluation) the Bicycle Friendly Community Program provides Long Beach with a roadmap to improve conditions for bicycling and guidance to help make Long Beach a more bikeable community.
