Bike/Ped provisions moving forward in both House and Senate
Today there are two pieces of VERY good news about the bike/ped provisions that are under consideration in both the Missouri House and Senate:
* The House version of the bill, HB 684, was approved by committee and given a DO PASS recommendation. There is a good chance it will be able to move forward now (probably as an amendment to another bill).
* Senator Jon Dolan has withdrawn SB 381, which had the bike/ped provisions as well as other transportation-related provisions. But now Sen. Dolan has inserted the bike/ped language into some other bills that have a very high probability of passing. So the provisions are still alive!
Bicyclists and pedestrians from around the state who contact the legislators about the bill can still have a big impact. Click here for contact info for the most vital legislators and more information about the latest developments.
