In Mount Vernon, Baltimore, residents ran 10 Telraam sensors for a year. On a 25 mph street, 1 in 3 cars sped. On another, measured traffic was 4,222 vehicles a day against a state estimate of 11,452. Their findings now back 5 requests to the city. @bikemore.net @mvba.bsky.social

Boosting this. Come lead Bikemore!

Bikemore is hiring an executive director to lead our team and help launch a citywide coalition for transportation investment. Baltimore, full time, $110-$125k. @jedweeks.bikemore.net is staying, excited to return full time to policy director of Bikemore in Action. Apply by 10/23: bikemore.net/jobs

Today we rallied with elected officials, students, and advocates in support of full funding for BMORE Bus and the Red Line, along with reversal of planned cuts to critical MTA maintenance and safety projects in this year's proposed state transportation budget.

"Restore the $360 million cut from Baltimore-area transit and commit the $2.1 billion needed to build the Red Line and BMORE BUS. Governor Moore is right: Economic mobility requires physical mobility. His transportation budget should demonstrate as much." www.baltimoresun.com/2026/09/28/m...

This year's state capital transportation budget (the CTP) is out. Bikemore and Central Maryland Transportation Alliance read it and compared it to previous years. Click through to read our findings. www.mdotctp.com

Tonight!

On July 22nd, join Baltimore Families for Safe Streets in honoring the lives of Brandon McMurrin and Jordan Bright, killed on the same day on corridors where long-promised street safety improvements may have prevented their deaths. Demand Action. RSVP: secure.everyaction.com/qAX1tLNNEkyw...

Today Baltimore Families for Safe Streets and Bikemore were out in the heat canvassing Washington Street where Brandon was killed. Enough is enough. Sign the petition to build it now: www.bikemore.net/news/buildwa...

From Jed's email - "Brandon was 9 years old when this project was proposed. He was 13 when it was supposed to be built. His whole future is gone because of Baltimore City's inaction." Inexcusable. www.gofundme.com/f/support-fo...

Morgan State freshman Brandon McMurrin was hit and killed while scooting home from work by the driver of an SUV on Washington St, where a protected bike lane has been promised since 2017. Sign Bikemore's petition demanding Baltimore City build Washington St NOW: www.bikemore.net/news/buildwa...

Tonight we hosted our second Stoopp Storytelling event, Commuter Chaos: True Stories from the Streets, Seats, and Sidewalks. Thank you to our partners at stoop, our storytellers and musicians, and Checkerspot Brewery for hosting our sold out event!

Baltimore fought for this. Maryland is accelerating nearly $25 million to jump-start a new bus division - the linchpin of the BMORE Bus plan and a major step toward expanding service for the workers, students, and families who depend on it every day.

Total trips connecting to the route went from 2,300 (October 2024 to February 2025) to 4,400 over the same period this year, with average trip distance growing from 2.3 to 2.7 miles. 🚲 More protected infrastructure means more people riding.

Safer streets start with understanding 🚲 Circulator drivers participated in a bike empathy training led by our friends at MTA, gaining insight into the cyclist experience 🤝 More sessions are planned as we work toward a safer, more connected Baltimore 🚌

Join us for a Unity Ride honoring Alex Pretti & all the many victims of ICE tyranny. The ride is a total of 7.3 mi, starting in the north lawn of the Washington Monument in Mt.Vernon, picking up riders at 700 Light St/Gateway Park & in the NW corner of Patterson Park, eventually ending at City Hall

Stay safe out there! Reminder that driving is not permitted without winter tires, all weather (NOT all season) tires, or chains. Stuck cars inhibit snow clearance and emergency access. Separated bicycle facilities are plowed concurrently with the streets they are on.

Bah Humbug. We love the Monument Lighting. We don't love when the Baltimore Police Department ignores the maintenance of traffic guidance that specifies where to park and uses the bike lane to park VIPs.
