Federal Transportation Dept. Purges Bike Lane Safety Content from Official Websites

Federal transportation officials have been steadily scrubbing references to bike lanes from government websites, eliminating a growing number of safety-related materials in the process.

Advocates for road safety are sounding the alarm over the removals, warning that stripping this content from official federal platforms undermines proven strategies for reducing traffic crashes and protecting cyclists.

The deletions are part of a broader push by transportation officials to remove bike lane-related information from the federal web presence, a move that has drawn criticism from those who argue such resources play a vital role in keeping roads safer for everyone.
