Shasta Living Streets

Bikes are an important part of our transportation network. Today, cities in Shasta County are making investments to help people feel safe to take more trips by bike, because biking reduces roadway traffic, supports business, and reduces emissions that cause climate change.

Biking in our region has been seen as a cultural asset since the 1890s, and it’s now a focus for local tourism.

Making bicycling safe, convenient and fun for everyday transportation brings tremendous advantages – it allows families to be healthy and save money on transportation, makes more vibrant and connected communities, and supports our local businesses by helping them attract customers, retain talented staff and attract tourists.

Bicycling it turns out, is good for all of us whether we bicycle or not, because it’s good for local business and the strength of our community.
