Volunteers from the Richardson Bicycle Coalition cleaned up trash in Galatyn Nature Preserve on Saturday, August 2, 2025, as part of the City’s Community & Corporate Environmental Cleanup Program. The group, assisted by members from Richardson “Pickup and Pints” Community Cleanup, filled several large bags with trash and recyclables to help beautify the Central Trail in the Galatyn Nature Preserve.
Our new Mayor, Amir Omar, officially proclaimed on May 19, 2025 that May is Bike Month in the City of Richardson. Richardson Bicycle Coalition sincerely thanks our Mayor, City Council Members, and the City’s Transportation & Mobility Team for all their time and support to make Richardson more bike friendly.
The City of Richardson announced on January 31, 2025 that the League of American Bicyclists had renewed Richardson’s status as a Bronze-level Bicycle Friendly Community. The award recognizes Richardson for its commitment to creating transportation and recreational resources that benefit its residents of all ages and abilities while encouraging healthier and more sustainable transportation choices. Richardson was the first city in North Texas to be named a Bicycle Friendly Community in 2015, when it received bronze certification, and that status was renewed in 2019 and again this week. Congrats to the City and cycling community!
