Advocating for active transportation infrastructure for everyone

Active infrastructure can help broaden access to mobility by offering residents a low-cost, reliable, and sustainable means of transportation.

Community

From 5K's to trail building and maintenance, we aim to provide opportunities for people to serve their community and have fun while building pride in the place they call home.

Transform Your Community With Trails

Increase Safety

We advocate for solutions that are safer for cyclists and pedestrians because when people feel safe they use infrastructure more. By prioritizing safety we'll create walkable places that people will want to live.

Empower People

Not just for recreation, we believe active infrastructure can empower a community, provide low cost commuting solutions, and give greater access to basic necessities.

Equality

We believe that infrastructure improvements should benefit everyone, not just those from a specific demographic. B/WG will not advocate for any solution that doesn't account for those most in need first.

Improve Quality of Life

Active infrastructure and outdoor recreation leads to better physical health outcomes, better quality of life and mental health outlooks, and an overall happier, active population.

Design for Humans

Car-centric development has destroyed the walkability of our cities and divided communities with impassible vehicle infrastructure. By designing for humans we aim to reconnect communities.

Fiscally Responsible Development

We know local budgets can be tight. We advocate for smart spending, pursuing federal grant opportunities, and doing projects that have the most real impact with the community.

Our Initiatives

We advocate for both recreational and functional pedestrian infrastructure throughout Griffin and Spalding County, as well as pedestrian-focused safety policy with local governments.
