On December 3, the Burlingame City Council unanimously voted (5-0) to extend its dockless bike share program through June 2019 after strong survey results showed the system's popularity.

Brightly colored lime green and orange bikes, many of them ebikes, have begun to appear in packs in Downtown San Jose, Burlingame, and South San Francisco. They are eye-catching and are causing quite a stir. So what are all these new bikes? It’s quite a saga with many different story lines. Welcome to the Bike Share Battle!

Today we spotlight SVBC member Emily Beach. Emily is a recently elected Burlingame City Council member. She has also recently joined the task force of the Grand Boulevard Initiative, a project that seeks to reinvent El Camino Real "as a place for residents to work, live, shop and play, creating links between communities that promote walking and transit and an improved and meaningful quality of life."
