Inside the Santa Cruz Bikeway experiment with Ecology Action’s Matt Miller

Matt Miller, the director of mobility transformation at Ecology Action, returned to Talk of the Bay in September to talk about the Santa Cruz Bikeway, a new 11-mile route encircling the city of Santa Cruz using only existing roads and infrastructure. While the two month pilot project wrapped up Oct. 8, and along with it most of the 160 yellow “bikeway” signs posted on street corners across the city, the route itself remains completely available to the public.

Matt joined the show Sept. 3rd to talk about what purpose the route is meant to serve and what his team hopes to glean from this temporary pilot program.
