ADD YOUR NAME TO THE MACON MOBILITY MANIFESTO

Help us reach 500 signatures and send a powerful message: Macon-Bibb County deserves safer, more connected, and more just streets. By signing the manifesto, you're standing with a growing movement to transform how our city moves. We’re calling for real action on Vision Zero, Complete Streets, and traffic calming - not just policies on paper, but safer designs that protect people of all ages and abilities. We envision a Macon where everyone has low-stress, connected options for getting around on foot, by bike, or by transit with sidewalks, trails, and the Ocmulgee Heritage Trail fully built out. We believe transportation should be affordable and accessible, shaped by the people who live here, and supported by public investment that puts community needs first. With bold leadership and strong public support, we can shift priorities toward clean, people-centered transportation and build a city where walking and biking are everyday options.

Add your name and help us make it clear: Macon is ready for change.

Help Shape the Future of Georgia’s First National Park

Big changes are coming to our region, and your voice can help shape what’s next. As Georgia moves closer to establishing its first National Park and Preserve, the Ocmulgee National Park and Preserve Initiative is hosting community input meetings to hear from people across Middle Georgia. This planning process will guide how we connect to the park, protect its cultural and ecological value, and ensure it’s accessible to all. If you live nearby, bike or walk the trails, or care about the future of this landscape, you’re encouraged to take part.
