Monthly Meetings

The Rockville Bike Advisory Committee meets the first Wednesday of each month from 7 pm to 9 pm.

Are you a bike enthusiast?
Are you interested in the bikeways in Rockville?
Would you like to see more trails or bike lanes?
Would you like to make a difference on how the bikeways are maintained?

Then join RBAC!
Since its creation, our volunteer committee has held regularly scheduled meetings throughout the year, carried out its mandated tasks, and has become an important and valuable resource to the City on bicycling issues. The active participation of the RBAC is vital to Rockville's continued success in implementing the Bikeway Master Plan Update and in improving conditions for bicycling in the City.

In 2019, the Rockville Mayor and City Council adopted a complete streets policy (to provide facilities that serve all users, including pedestrians, bicyclists, transit users and motorists) and in 2018 they adopted a Vision Zero resolution (to reduce traffic-related deaths to zero by 2030). RBAC members are working with the City to help with these goals and serve as liaisons to interested residents.

RBAC's Mission (http://www.rockvillemd.gov/index.aspx?nid=327):
The committee's mandate for action includes the following tasks:

•Assist in the development of the City's bicycle and pedestrian specific policies, as well as other policies that affect the conditions for bicycling in the City;

•Oversee the implementation of the City’s Bikeway Master Plan Update and report progress toward completion to the Mayor and City Council;

•Review current and proposed CIP projects to ensure bicycle needs are incorporated into design and construction when appropriate; and

•Deliver updates on the needs and desires of bicyclists in the community, with recommendations for action to the Mayor and City Council.
