HB 3187 (the Texas House bill to cut DART) died last night! Time ran out to schedule it for a vote on the House floor. Huge victory for @ridewithdata.org! The gameβs not over yet, because SB 1557 (that does the same thing) is still floating out there, but the HB dying is major progress.

Leave a comment on the bike plan at dallasbikeplan2025.org! Join DBC in sending a clear message to our city's leadership- we need more funding and we need to build a basic bike network faster than 20 years. Dallas roads are dangerous, and
this is a solution.
So what can you do? First and foremost, email your council member and follow us on social media to stay up to date!

Today weβre announcing our 2025 advocacy goals to the public!
Pass the Bike Plan π Build the Bike Plan π Make it safe
We need more funding and we have to build faster. Dallas roads are dangerous and this is a solution π
Community advocacy is necessary to be sure Dallas not only passes the forthcoming Dallas Bike Plan but also to be sure the city implements the projects citywide. Dallas had a great plan in 2011, but very little of it was built.
