Caltrain BAC seeks public member

Caltrain is seeking a volunteer representative for the Bicycle Advisory Committee. There is an opening for a Caltrain bike passenger from the general public in Santa Clara County.

Caltrain's Bicycle Advisory Committee (BAC) serves as the primary venue for the interests and perspectives of bicyclists to be integrated into the Caltrain planning processes. This group brings new ideas for discussion and helps Caltrain guide its future investments. The BAC meets every other month at 6:45 p.m. in San Carlos, just one block from the San Carlos Caltrain Station. All meetings are open to the public.

The committee is a partnership composed of nine volunteer members and Caltrain staff. There are three representatives from each of the three counties served by Caltrain: San Francisco, San Mateo and Santa Clara. One member from each county is a public agency staff member responsible for bike planning and/or policy development, one is a member of a bicycle advocacy organization, and one is a member of the general public.

Applications are due Monday, December 9. Individuals of diverse ethnic backgrounds are encouraged to apply. For more information or to apply, go to http://tinyurl.com/caltrainbac.
