Bronx Committee

The Bronx Committee is one of Transportation Alternative’s most successful volunteer campaigns. Founded in 1994, the Bronx Committee was involved in developing the Bronx Greenway Plan and organizing the first Safe Routes to School program in North America.

Today, the Committee continues its outreach. We are part of a coalition of Bronx-based advocacy organizations on Car-Free Crotona Saturdays, and we partner with the Bronx Borough President’s office on the Tour de Bronx, now in its 15th year. The Committee also joins T.A. for the Bronx leg of the NYC Century Bike Tour, which brings thousands of riders through Van Cortlandt Park.

The Committee holds monthly meetings, in the Bronx (for more info: http://transalt.org/events/calendar). Interested in helping out? Email volunteer@transalt.org or call Elena at 646-873-6036 to join the committee.
