South Lake Tahoe wants to be "Bicycle Friendly Community” once again

Is South Lake Tahoe bike friendly? Once known as a “Bicycle Friendly Community," the City has applied to become one again.

The application to the League of American Bicyclists has been submitted, and they will be reviewing criteria such as the number of miles of bike lanes and bike paths in South Lake Tahoe, what improvements have been made to the bike infrastructure, how the City engages with the public and encourages them to cycle, law enforcement related to cycling, educational outreach for cycling, and basic demographics of the community.

There are two factors involved in the review of the application: volunteers who actually sign up to do a lengthy review of the application, and a community that gives feedback via an online survey.

The City is asking the public to complete the survey which takes just a few minutes to complete. The results will be shared with the community.

The survey link is https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/SouthLakeTahoeBFC. The survey is open now through September 15 at midnight PST.
