California Bicycle Advisory Committee

Formed by Caltrans in 1992, the California Bicycle Advisory Committee (CBAC) is composed of thirteen members who represent various California agencies and organizations. The committee provides guidance to Caltrans on bicycle issues. Meetings are held on the first Thursday of every other month starting with February. The Bicycle Facilities Unit provides staff support to the committee.

Typical CBAC issues:

  • Bicycle lane striping
  • Bicycles on freeways
  • Signage
  • Design standards for shared roadways
