We are looking for eager and passionate professional to join our organization as a part-time community manager.
The South Bay Bicycle Coalition is a California registered non-profit that was founded in late 2009 by a handful of bike-loving bicycle advocates. We are determined to bring the wide range of local riders together to help create a safer, more accessible, more easily interconnected region in which to ride.
OUR VISION
The South Bay Bicycle Coalition strives to improve the region’s transportation culture by prioritizing a comprehensive bikeway network for increased cycling access; safe and secure streets for ALL. Please take a look at the Bike Master Plan that was created to connect 7 cities in the South Bay: El Segundo, Gardena, Hermosa Beach, Lawndale, Manhattan Beach, Redondo Beach and Torrance.

The South Bay Bicycle Coalition is the leading bike advocacy group in the South Bay. We focus upon projects centered around improving bike infrastructure, bike policy and increasing cycling safety and convenience....

After a year of collaboration with community members, city staff, elected officials and bike planning dream-team Alta Planning + Design, the South Bay Bicycle Coalition (SBBC) and Los Angeles County Bicycle Coalition (LACBC) are proud to present the final draft of the South Bay Bicycle Master Plan.
The final draft of the South Bay Bicycle Master Plan features over 213 miles of proposed bikeways and policies to support a bike-friendly future across the seven cities (El Segundo, Gardena, Hermosa Beach, Lawndale, Manhattan Beach, Redondo Beach and Torrance). The 213.8 mile proposed network is nearly three times the amount of bikeways that exist on the ground in these seven cities today. Compared to the 876-mile street network, these proposed bikeways represent bike infrastructure improvements to the equivalent of over 24% of the existing roadways across the seven partnering cities at a fractional cost of the cities’ infrastructure improvement budgets ($10M over 20 years across seven cities). Most notably, plan adoption would make...
With an aggressive round of seven community open houses officially done, I am proud to report that they were a smashing success! Upwards of 300 community members across our seven partnering cities joined us to share their knowledge and experiences as both cyclists and motorists in the South Bay.
We heard about the various challenges that we all face on our streets. Workshop participants ranged from the experienced and confident to the hesitant and skeptical; and thus we collected a broad range of opinions. Our consultant, Alta Planning + Design, will spend the next few months compiling all the data collected, analyzing our streets and subsequently proposing a series of interconnected bikeways across our region. A DRAFT of the master plan with associated policy language and signage will be available at the end of April. A second round of workshops featuring the draft will occur in May.
Next to getting 300 people to enthusiastically spend a weekday evening learning about a bike...
