The purpose of the Community Bicycle Safety Training (CBST) is to make bicycling safer and more pleasant in California’s communities. Modeled off of SafeTREC’s Community Pedestrian Safety Training (CPST), CBST will empower communities to envision safer bicycling environments, and reduce bicycle-related traffic crashes in California.
The CBST teaches elements of safe bicycling environments (e.g. engineering treatments like buffered bicycle lanes), best practices in on-the-road bicycle safety (e.g. bicycling handling and hazard avoidance maneuvers), community engagement skills (e.g. empowering individuals to advocate for safer bicycling environments), walking assessment of bicycling conditions, and the prioritization of bicycle safety issues. The training includes expert presentation on safe bicycling, an interactive training session, walking assessment of bicycling conditions, and small group discussion and priority setting.
