The staff at the city of Alameda has been working diligently for years on protected infrastructure. Now that work is getting national attention
By Roger Rudick
When the last 200 feet of the four-mile cross-Alameda trail was opened, Streetsblog was quick to celebrate that latest accomplishment from the island city of Alameda. Now the city announced it is getting national recognition as well, from the League of American Bicyclists.
From a recent statement:
The City of Alameda received the League of American Bicyclists’ Gold-level Bicycle Friendly Community (BFC) Award for our efforts to build better places for people to bike — a distinction held by only 32 cities nationwide. Alameda’s journey to this honor reflects a decade of steady progress, starting with a Bronze Award in 2016 and a Silver Award in 2021.
