Mobility Month 2020
Charleston Moves dedicates May to amplifying community. We thrive when streets are safe and connected, designed for all people.
Our series of events range from all-ages group rides to neighborhood walks, lectures, guided tours and data collection. There will be many opportunities to show up, plug in, help out — and have fun — so you can influence what your community looks and feels like. At the root of it, we aim to elevate, educate and energize people around our vision for transportation freedom. Join us, friends! We can’t wait to see you out there!

TAKE QUICK ACTION
As a region surrounded by water, bridges are a major barrier for people traveling by bike and foot. In order to truly our connect communities and offer transportation freedom, these barriers must be addressed.
To that end, we have 2 active petitions that support safe crossings over a handful of Charleston area bridges, and that link to pending improvements. If you haven’t already, please sign our Bridge The Ashley and Limehouse Bridge petitions!
