2026 City to Watch

A former Big Jump city, Baltimore made the most of its partnership with PeopleForBikes to make meaningful investments in a connected, low-stress bike network — and the work hasn't slowed down since. The city has an active portfolio of projects in our national bike project tracker, with improvements spanning from large, regional greenways to small, local connector trails. Baltimore's score of 46 puts it just within reach of the 50-point threshold of becoming a great place to ride, making it one of the most compelling near-term success stories to follow.
