YEG Bike Coalition is a dedicated group of Edmontonians advocating for high-quality, on-street bike routes in Edmonton. Our mission revolves around enhancing cycling infrastructure, safety, and awareness while promoting a culture of cycling inclusivity for all residents.

Bike lanes are pivotal for ensuring the safety of cyclists, reducing vehicular traffic, promoting a healthier lifestyle, and mitigating environmental impacts. They align with Edmonton's Vision Zero goals and the climate emergency declaration, enhancing our city's push towards becoming a 15-minute city.

No. While the term "bike lanes" might imply they are just for bicycles, these pathways serve a diverse range of transportation modes, from wheelchairs to rollerblades. They provide safe, smooth, and accessible routes for many Edmontonians.

Bike lanes alleviate traffic congestion, reducing the overall number of vehicles on the road. This leads to smoother traffic flows, fewer accidents, and decreased wear and tear on infrastructure, translating into cost savings.

We host a variety of events,but we also share events from across the community! Our events page features group rides, advocacy events and training, and meetups.

These events foster community engagement, promote cycling culture, and work towards building safer streets for all.

Recognizing Edmonton's winter conditions, we advocate for regular maintenance of bike lanes, especially snow removal. This ensures that bike lanes remain accessible and safe throughout the year, supporting year-round cyclists.

Absolutely! Bike lanes can boost local businesses as cyclists often shop locally. They also result in infrastructure cost savings in the long run, potential taxpayer relief, and attract talent who prioritize sustainable transportation options.

Bike lanes are designed to complement public transportation, allowing seamless transitions from cycling to taking buses or trams. This synergy provides a comprehensive transportation network, reducing reliance on private cars.

While there's an initial investment, the long-term benefits far outweigh the costs. Enhanced safety, reduced traffic congestion, environmental benefits, infrastructure longevity, and the promotion of a healthier lifestyle are some of the returns on investment.
