Thanks to everyone who joined in support of safe, protected, cycle tracks along 30th Street (Option “A”). It was a terrific turn out, showing the community how much enthusiasm there is for a healthy, safe and reliable mode of clean transportation in our neighborhoods. Advocating for safe bicycle infrastructure is easier when you have hundreds of supporters backing you up! Special thanks to Climate Action Campaign, San Diego County Bicycle Coalition, Bike San Diego, City Heights Community Development Corporation and Circulate San Diego.

Safe Streets For All Family Ride

The bicycling community enjoyed a family ride from Bird Park at 28th and Upas to Teralta Park in City Heights calling for safe, climate-friendly, healthy, and connected communities, starting with the implementation of “Option A” on 30th Street. Option A is the design concept for 30th that is the safest and most comfortable for cyclists and provides the most space for plenty of riders to enjoy the road.

Close to 300 bicyclists of all ages joined in supporting the development of a world-class transportation network in San Diego. Enjoying a beautiful ride along two soon-to-be multi-modal corridors, 30th Street through North Park and Howard/Orange Avenue in Mid-City, we completed the ride and celebrated at Teralta Park at the end!

Safe streets for everyone, especially young riders, has always been a prime motivation in my quest to encourage, promote and advocate for bicycling in our beautiful city. Let’s keep it rolling!

SANDAG hosted a groundbreaking ceremony and community celebration to kick-off construction on the Rose Creek Bikeway, Thursday, January 25, 2018.

The Rose Creek Bikeway is part of the Coastal Rail Trail and is being designed as a Class I bike path (completely separated from vehicle traffic) that connects existing sections of the Rose Canyon and Rose Creek bike paths in the City of San Diego.

The bikeway will fill a two-mile gap in the Regional Bike Network between points to the north such as Sorrento Valley, University City, and UC San Diego, and points to the south such as Mission Bay, Pacific Beach, Mission Valley, and Downtown San Diego.

The Rose Creek Bikeway will begin at the north end of Santa Fe Street and connect to the existing bike path at Damon Street and Mission Bay Drive, just a short distance north of the Mike Gotch Memorial Bridge over Rose Inlet.
