Caltrain Seeks Six Representatives for Bicycle & Active Transportation Advisory Committee
Caltrain is seeking six Caltrain riders to apply for
its Bicycle & Active Transportation Advisory Committee (BATAC),
which serves as the primary venue to advocate for the interests and
perspectives of customers who use active transportation—bicycles, scooters, walking, etc.—to access the Caltrain system.
The
openings are for a member of the public and a representative of a
bicycle advocacy group from San Francisco County, a member of the
public and a public agency staff member from San Mateo County, and a
representative of a bicycle advocacy group and a public agency staff
member from Santa Clara County.
The committee is comprised of nine volunteer members from San Francisco, San Mateo and Santa Clara counties. One
member from each county is a public agency staff member
responsible for planning and/or policy development related to active
transportation, one is a member of a bicycle advocacy
organization, and one is a member from the general public who uses
active transportation to access Caltrain.
Applications are due by Monday, Dec. 2, and are available at www.caltrain.com/batac or by calling 650.730.4981.
The BATAC meets in-person every other month at 5:45 p.m. All meetings are open to the public.
