Federal funding for bike trails and safe streets is under threat. We need you to sign a support letter by December 22.
Adventure Cycling Association is supporting a coordinated national effort led by our partners at Rails to Trails Conservancy, alongside the American Hiking Society, American Trails, the League of American Bicyclists, PeopleForBikes, and the Safe Routes to School Partnership, to protect the Transportation Alternatives (TA) program and related active transportation funding.
Sign the Federal Trails, Walking and Biking Support Letter
Why This Matters
Since 1991, TA has funded more than 42,500 miles of multiuse trails and thousands of roadway projects that make it safer to walk, bike, and roll nationwide. But it's not enough on its own. We must also preserve eligibility for trails, walking, and bicycling infrastructure across all federal formula and discretionary grant programs.
We encourage national, state, and local advocacy organizations, local elected officials, businesses, and cyclists to sign on, urging Congress to preserve the Transportation Alternatives program, safety provisions for vulnerable road users, and broad eligibility across federal programs by December 22.
If you would like to learn more about the Transportation Alternatives program and the work being done to protect it, additional information and resources are available from Rails to Trails Conservancy here: America’s Trails Are Under Fire
