Maple Ridge and Pitt Meadows need your support on safe Active Travel
Maple Ridge and Pitt Meadows are growing communities, and with that growth comes the need for safer, more accessible transportation options for everyone. Whether commuting to work, heading to school, or running errands, you deserve to get home safely—whether you drive, walk, or bike.
The HUB Maple Ridge-Pitt Meadows Local Committee is a volunteer-run group advocating for safer, more connected active travel across our community. Over the years, we’ve helped build healthier and happier communities by:
- Advocating for improvements like painting intersections with green paint to reduce crashes between people driving and walking or cycling,
- contributed to the Budget Consultations and Strategic Transportation Plan, and
- worked with local schools to increase safe active travel for students.
As the affordability crisis deepens, we must work together to support safe, economical, and healthy transportation alternatives. Cycling and active transportation provides cost-effective solutions and also contribute to greener, healthier, and more connected communities.
We can’t do this alone—advocacy needs people that actively live and work in these communities, people like you! Your voice and presence matter.
There are many ways to get involved, depending on your level of conviction in the cause, your available time and the types of activities you are interested in.
Come to our monthly meetings
We meet every 2nd Thursday of the month physically (can also join virtually) at Eric Langton Elementary in downtown Maple Ridge. Various topics are discussed at our meetings, including events planning and providing feedback on policy and planned infrastructure to our cities, TransLink, the Ministry of Transportation and other organizations and institutions.
No experience is required—everyone is welcome!
Contact us to find out more about the meetings.
Become an occasional volunteer
If you are not yet ready to make regular commitments, giving us a hand on an occasional basis would be most welcome and is a good way to check us out to see if we are the right group for you.
Helping hands are occasionally needed, for example, at our bike valet at local festivals (e.g. Pitt Meadows Day), providing bike tune-ups at our event stand, or doing assessment rides of our local routes.
Contact us if you would be interested in helping out occasionally.
