Dear Charlotte City Council members,

I urge you to increase the budget for the bicycle program to $20 million per bond cycle, which equals $10 million per fiscal year.

This funding will make it possible to:
- Build 10 miles of All-Ages-Abilities bicycle facilities every year.
- Complete the remaining 100+ miles of the Bicycle Priority Network before 2040.
- Reduce injuries and fatalities for all road users, ultimately helping us reach our Vision Zero goal.
- Increase local economic activity and support upward economic mobility when bicycling facilities are added or upgraded.
- Help mitigate congestion and promote healthy, active mobility.
- Increase climate-friendly transportation to help the city achieve its 2050 Strategic Energy Action Plan (SEAP) goal of drastically reducing per capita greenhouse gas emissions.
We must prioritize funding for walking, biking, and public transit to support and enhance the overall commuting experience and achieve the 50/50 Mode Share Goal outlined in the Strategic Mobility Plan. This will help ensure that safe and connected facilities are available for use.

As your constituent, I urge you to increase funding for the Bicycle Program to $10 million annually.

Thank you for your consideration,
