The Active Transportation Resource Center (ATRC) is invested in the success of the Active Transportation Program (ATP). The ATRC utilizes a combination of subject matter experts from state agencies, universities, and consultants to improve active transportation across California.
Funded by the California Transportation Commission (CTC), we support ATP applicants, ATP recipients, and others working to improve active transportation across California. Together we can increase safe walking and bicycling for all Californians and work towards our state’s mobility, safety, equity, environmental and health goals.
Our Mission
The mission of the Active Transportation Resource Center is to provide resources, technical assistance, and training to transportation partners across California to increase the opportunity for the success of active transportation projects.
