The Bicycle Facilities Unit is responsible for the Caltrans bike program. Acting as the Department's bicycle advocate, the unit's objective is to improve safety and convenience for bicyclists. The unit provides policy, funding, planning and technical expertise in bicycle transportation in consultation with federal, state, and local transportation agencies, Caltrans headquarters and District staff, legislative staff, and the public.
