Bicycle South Central PA Announces Its Second Bicycle Infrastructure Tour!
BSCPA’s mission is to promote bicycling, increase safety, improve bicycling facilities, advocate for bicycle-friendly policies at the state, regional and local level, and provide a voice for bicyclists in South Central PA.

These include contra-flow lanes, on-street bike lanes, bike share, protected parking bike lanes, bike boulevards, traffic calming measures and pedestrian safety improvements.
