Charleston Moves encourages mobility by bicycle (and on foot) for the improved health and well-being of greater Charleston — our people, neighborhoods, business districts and overall economic competitiveness. We advocate for a safe and enjoyable bicycling and walking environment and educate the public about the benefits of a bicycle- and pedestrian-friendly community.

Charleston Moves provides the vision and leadership needed (both on the grassroots level and in seats of government) to make the greater Charleston area more bicycle-friendly. Through the support of a broad volunteer and partner base, Charleston Moves:

Stages enjoyable and educational events such as rides, bicycle-themed parties, lectures, workshops to support the Battery2Beach Initiative and our general mission
Confers with public officials and others, to provide lobbying and legislative services
Provides consultation for any new civil engineering and transportation projects
Works with schools at all levels to educate and promote safe cycling for students of all ages
Advocates for an enduring built environment that promotes physical activity and healthy communities
Supports specific community projects and polices that provide safe environments for walking, bicycling and livability (walk-ability and bike-ability)
Advances projects and policies that promote equity and are economically, racially, and culturally inclusive of the diversity present within our community
Publishes positions on major community issues related to transportation, public transportation, land use, walking, and bicycling issues/projects.
