Advocacy

Our Advocacy Goals

We are dedicated to making Youngstown a more bike-friendly city by advocating for better infrastructure, safer streets, and policies that support sustainable transportation.

Infrastructure Improvements

More bike lanes, better signage, and safer roads.

Policy Change

We work with local governments to ensure policies prioritize green transportation options.

Community Engagement

We organize meetings and forums to educate and rally support for sustainable transportation initiatives.

Why Advocacy Matters?

When we advocate for biking in Youngstown, we’re doing more than asking for safer roads. We’re asking for improved health, better access to jobs, and cleaner air.

We know from global examples, such as those seen in the work of organizations like World Bicycle Relief, that improving mobility through cycling can change lives by:

Increasing access to education

Providing healthcare workers with the tools

Connecting underserved areas to urban centers
