Walking and Rolling Through the Winter
The coldest months of the year are upon us and contrary to popular belief, many of our California communities are experiencing ice and snow. Does that stop people from walking and bicycling? No! Some people choose to walk or bicycle in winter because they enjoy it while others do so because it’s the best or only transportation option available to them. But, ice and snow can put a damper on the walking and bicycling experience and cause travelers to change their plans.
2025 Active Transportation Program (Cycle 7): Summary of Statewide, Small Urban, and Rural Projects
The California Active Transportation Program (ATP) is the state’s only dedicated funding source for projects supporting walking and bicycling. Since its inception, ATP projects have benefited urban, rural, and Tribal communities across the state. These projects are critical to meeting California’s climate, safety, and equity goals. In December 2024, the California Transportation Commission (CTC) awarded funding to 13 projects: 9 projects were selected in the Statewide component, and 4 projects in the Small Urban and Rural component. All funds will directly benefit disadvantaged communities, providing more equitable transportation access and prioritizing safety for the most vulnerable road users.
