City of West Hollywood
Congratulations to the City of West Hollywood on its one-year anniversary of launching WeHo Pedals! In just 12 months, more than 1,800 riders have pedaled over 20,000 miles on our green bikes, and we have extended our reach to places like The Grove (check out our new station near Sur La Table!) and Runyon Canyon. We’re proud of these achievements and invite you to join us as we celebrate the one year anniversary of introducing bike share to the West Hollywood community. The City is hosting a community birthday party on Wednesday, August 30 from 5:30 p.m. – 7:30 p.m. and you’re invited! The celebration will include a food truck, birthday cake, photo booth, and an optional bike ride led by members of the WeHo Bicycle Coalition.

It’s about to be a bright, beautiful night in Beverly Hills tomorrow, Wednesday, August 2nd!
Mayor Lili Bosse and the City Council invite you to join them as they unveil an awe-inspiring creation by artist Ed Massey on Wednesday, August 2nd at 8:00 pm at the Lily Pond in Beverly Hills Garden Park. “Portraits of Hope: Neon in 3-D at the Lily Pond” is just the beginning of a B.O.L.D. (Beverly Hills Open Later Days) month in Beverly Hills and you will not want to miss this grand opening.
The historic Beverly Hills Sign and Lily Pond will be transformed and brought to life with more than 1,000 art discs painted in eye-popping, fluorescent colors. 3-D glasses will be on hand to experience the colors appearing to rise off of the discs, floating in the air. A delight for children and adults alike, this wonderful installation is perfect summer fun for all to enjoy. To learn more, go to beverlyhills.org/BOLD and we cannot wait to see you there!

Technology is transforming how we think about transportation. Autonomous vehicles will imminently impact our cities and how we get around. Coordinating land use and transportation planning together with active mobility has never been more important.
How is technology shaping the future of urban transportation? How can technology affect universal access? How will evolving transportation providers address the needs of seniors and the disabled? How will the autonomous vehicle market respond to the safety needs of pedestrians and cyclists as we seek to meet our Vision Zero goals?
As Measure M implementation begins and new Senate Bill 1 investments are being planned, ensuring universal access is an urgent public policy topic. Join us for a lively discussion with panelists who are leading the way in tackling these challenging issues:
- Honorable John Mirisch | Councilmember, City of Beverly Hills
- Seleta Reynolds | General Manager, Los Angeles Department of Transportation
- Stephanie Ramirez | Associate State Director, AARP, California
- Will Baumgardner | Principal, Transport & Mobility Leader, Arup
Additional speakers to be announced.
Following the panel discussion, please join us for refreshments at our reception.
This event is sponsored by Arup and cohosted by the Westside Cities Council of Governments.
