特朗普政府交通部长肖恩·达菲7月7日宣布将13.73亿美元从拜登时期的"DEI自行车道和气候变化"项目重定向到道路、桥梁和港口建设1。这一决定同时将自行车道从联邦公路局认可的安全措施名单中移除1。政府已取消了阿尔伯克基的1,140万美元和费尔菲尔德的1,170万美元自行车道项目拨款1。
倡导者和研究数据对此举提出强烈反对。根据2025年YouGov调查，75%的美国成年人支持在当地建设自行车道1。科学研究证明自行车道具有实质性安全效益，能将碰撞频率降低53%，并使平均最高速度降低28%1。受资金削减影响的地方政府已采取法律行动，阿尔伯克基已对达菲和交通部提起诉讼1。2025年新墨西哥州已有14名骑行者死亡，为2024年的两倍1，进一步凸显道路安全的紧迫性。
The Trump administration's Department of Transportation announced plans to redirect $1.373 billion away from what officials characterize as "DEI bike lanes" under the previous administration, with Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy declaring on July 7 that the funds would be reallocated toward road, bridge, and port construction 1. As part of this initiative, bike lanes were removed from the Federal Highway Administration's list of approved safety measures 1.
The funding cancellation has affected specific projects, including the withdrawal of $11.4 million in grants for Albuquerque and $11.7 million for Fairfield 1. Advocates and local officials have raised alarm over the move, warning that eliminating bike lanes will compromise road safety and non-motorized transportation options 1. Research cited by safety proponents demonstrates that bike lanes can reduce crash frequency by 53 percent and lower average maximum speeds by 28 percent 1. A 2025 YouGov survey found that 75 percent of American adults support building bike lanes in their communities 1.
The consequences have already been felt locally: New Mexico recorded 14 cyclist deaths in 2025, double the number from 2024 1. In response, Albuquerque has filed a lawsuit against Duffy and the Department of Transportation 1.
