Subject:I Support Protected Bike Lanes
Dear Mayor and Council,
I want to express my support for the Anholm bikeway plan that includes protected bike lanes.
The City of San Luis Obispo is one of just six communities in California that has received Gold Level Bicycle Friendly
Community designation from the League of American Bicyclists. The City Council and City Staff has worked very hard to
make San Luis Obispo a leader in providing a transportation infrastructure that supports and encourages active forms of
transportation, such as cycling and walking.
Although the Anholm Bikeway project has become a political issue, now is not the time to succumb to political pressure
and a few angry voices. Please have the courage to stay the course and continue to build a transportation infrastructure
in San Luis Obispo that addresses climate change, supports a healthy community and encourages residents and visitors
alike to seek alternatives to making short trips by automobile.
Thank you for your courage and commitment to building a safer community.
Sincerely,
David Abrecht
Ride Coordinator
