Action Alert for West Cliff!

This Saturday, the City of Santa Cruz is hosting a community feedback session on their Shoreline Adaptation Project, and want to hear directly from you! Join us on Saturday, August 8 from 10:30am-12:30pm at Bayview Elementary for an interactive workshop and feedback session to share about your experience biking, rolling, or walking on West Cliff, and your vision for the future of our beloved coastal trail.

Bike Santa Cruz County will be there to advocate for a wider path with separation for people biking/rolling and people walking, because we know that West Cliff has the potential to become a world-class, people-prioritized coastal trail. Let’s help transform this beloved stretch of our coast, and make it safer and more enjoyable for generations to come.

See you at the session!
