The East Buffalo Township Pedestrian and Bicycle Committee (EBT-PBC) was formed by the East Buffalo Township Board of Supervisors in September 2007 to promote the safety and availability of pedestrian and bicycle access in EBT.

Our main activities include:

• Improving connections between homes and neighborhood amenities, including "Safe Routes to School",
• Developing regional connectivity through routes like the Buffalo Valley Rail Trail,
• Ensuring that decisions and ordinances that affect East Buffalo Township are attentive to pedestrian- and bicycle-related issues (including the Union County Comprehensive Plan adoption process),
• Coordinating closely with the Board of Supervisors and providing periodic recommendations to the Board,
• Educating all users of the road (drivers, joggers, cyclists, walkers) to act safely and be mindful of others around them, and
• Partnering with other local organizations and institutions concerned with walkability and bikeability where we live.

Members (approved by the Board of Supervisors) meet monthly. Coming soon: links to the notes from our meetings.
