Frederick officials are asking residents, visitors, and workers to take part in a public survey to evaluate how well the city supports bicyclists. The input will help determine whether Frederick advances from its current Bronze-level Bicycle Friendly Community (BFC) status to a Silver-level designation, as judged by the League of American Bicyclists.

We know you value local news and entertainment that is free, open, and independent. Producing high-quality, paywall-free content isn't free.

Unlike corporate media, we don’t have deep-pocketed investors or big advertisers funding our work—we rely on you, our readers and listeners, to keep Radio Free Hub City running. We're literally running on a shoe-string budget, but keep working hard to provide as much news and entertainment as we can.
If just 5% of local area residents became paid supporters at only $5 per month, we could meet our fundraising goals and continue expanding our news coverage depth while continuing to provide free access for everyone. So, if you'd like to help us in our continuing quest to improve our coverage, please consider becoming a paying supporter.

The city is seeking diverse feedback to better understand current biking conditions, identify problem areas, and plan future improvements. While the League conducts its formal review of the application, local officials are encouraging broad participation in the survey, regardless of biking frequency or experience. The results will influence both national designation and local transportation planning decisions that could affect road safety, traffic flow, and infrastructure investments.
The survey is part of Frederick’s broader effort to improve mobility options and reduce traffic congestion. If successful in earning Silver status, Frederick could become more competitive for future transportation grants and state-level funding aimed at enhancing bike infrastructure. These improvements could include safer bike lanes, more signage, and expanded connectivity for cyclists across the city.
