The race for Scottsdale City Council is heating up - please take the time to learn which candidates support safer streets, improved bike infrastructure, pedestrian-friendly access, and the open spaces that make riding here so special.

When you hear candidates push back on 'complete streets' or decry 'road diets' as a liberal agenda, remember what those terms really mean: streets designed to protect vulnerable users - cyclists and pedestrians - by prioritizing safety, accessibility, and livability over speed and vehicle throughput.

Our infrastructure doesn't happen by accident. It reflects the priorities of the people we elect. Who we choose matters.

Trees make our city cooler, shadier and more pleasant to cycle through - please take a look at the City’s new Shade and Tree Plan and let City Council know that you support this commonsense approach to improving the livability of our community! 🌳

🌳 Scottsdale residents are invited to review and share feedback on the draft Shade and Tree Plan. The plan outlines strategies to expand shade across the community while supporting desert sustainability and water efficiency.

Our infrastructure plays an outsized role in our safety - we need to be informed citizens and let our elected officials know how to keep us safe!

March made something clear.

Cyclists aren’t the problem.
The roads they’re forced to ride on are.

We saw it in the stories shared.
We saw it in the conversations happening across this community.

People are riding smart.
They’re showing up.
They’re doing their part.

But safety shouldn’t depend on luck.
It should be built into the road.

That’s why the Rob Dollar Foundation exists 🧡

👉 Share this if you’ve ever felt unsafe on a ride
👉 Tag someone you ride with
👉 Follow for more real conversations about cycling safety
