Come to Our Monthly Meeting

You can make real, tangible changes to how streets and sidewalks function in the Bronx and Uptown.

The Bronx/Uptown Activist Committee chooses local campaigns and fights for changes on-the-ground in their neighborhoods, like bike lanes and new pedestrian plazas.

Come to the next meeting to get involved in making these campaigns a success.

Our meetings are primarily online, but some meetings are in person.

Every third Wednesday of every month at 6 p.m.

Support Our Active Campaigns

These are the campaigns the Bronx/Uptown Manhattan Activist Committee chose for this year.

Our History

Founded in 1993, the Bronx/Uptown Activist Committee helped develop the Bronx Greenway Plan and organized the first Safe Routes to School program in North America, now a federal program. The City's first Neighborhood Slow Zone came to the Bronx because of the committee’s activism.
