Resources
evidence based
community led
At Bike Bus Edmonton, our work is rooted in community energy and grounded in public health evidence. We believe joyful, active school travel should be both safe and accessible — and that strong programming comes from understanding what works, why it works, and how we can scale it responsibly.
We work to collaborate with researchers, practitioners, and graduate students at academic institutions, with industry experts, and with local government. All who help us deepen the evidence behind our model. Together, we’re building a robust foundation for growth and developing tools that help us measure and strengthen our impact.
These resources help us stay transparent, reflective, and committed to delivering programs that meaningfully support children, families, and communities.
