Rockville Bike Advisory Committee (RBAC)

Are you a bike enthusiast? Are you interested in the bikeways in Rockville? Would you like to see more trails or bike lanes? Would you like to make a difference on how the bikeways are maintained? Then you should join Rockville Bike Advisory Committee (RBAC)!

RBAC consists of volunteers with a broad range of bicycle abilities. Since its creation, our volunteer committee has held regularly scheduled meetings throughout the year, carried out its mandated tasks, and has become an important and valuable resource to the City on bicycling issues. The active participation of the RBAC is vital to Rockville’s continued success in implementing the Bikeway Master Plan Update and in improving conditions for bicycling in the City. In addition to working with the city, RBAC also leads a number of community rides to show residents the network of trails and roads in the city.

The Rockville Bike Advisory Committee (RBAC) meets virtually the first Wednesday of each month from 7 pm to 9 pm. (Unless it’s a holiday, e.g. The January meeting is Wednesday, January 8). Information about meetings can be found at https://www.meetup.com/bike-rockville/events.

In 2019, the Rockville Mayor and City Council adopted a complete streets policy (to provide facilities that serve all users, including pedestrians, bicyclists, transit users and motorists) and in 2018 they adopted a Vision Zero resolution (to reduce traffic-related deaths to zero by 2030). RBAC members are working with the City to help with these goals and serve as liaisons to interested residents.
