Hello friends of active transportation in Oregon,
The Oregon Department of Transportation is seeking a person engaged in the business of selling or repairing bicycles to join the Oregon Bicycle and Pedestrian Advisory Committee that advises ODOT on bicycle and pedestrian issues across the state.
All Oregon residents who participate in the business of selling or repairing bicycles are eligible to apply. Appointments are non-binding, and appointees may serve a maximum of two four-year terms. Appointees are eligible for a stipend and travel reimbursements for their service on the committee. ODOT strives to have committee representation that reflects the diverse geography, demographics, and abilities of everyone who walks, bikes or rolls in Oregon.

Quarterly Virtual Meetings: We meet virtually for approximately three hours each quarter. All members are expected to attend these sessions.
