To create a connected and thriving neighborhood where Montbello residents have access to safe, efficient, and environmentally friendly transportation options.
MONTBELLO
MOVES
Montbello Moves is an exciting and transformative initiative dedicated to advancing sustainable mobility, transportation, and infrastructure projects in our vibrant community. As we embark on this journey, our mission is to create a connected and thriving neighborhood where Montbello residents have access to safe, efficient, and environmentally friendly transportation options. From promoting active transportation through the Walkable Loop and electric bike library to fostering community engagement with an electric passenger van and charging stations, Montbello Moves is committed to shaping a future that prioritizes accessibility, sustainability, and the well-being of our residents. Join us as we pave the way toward a more connected, mobile, and vibrant Montbello.
Walkable
Loop
The Walkable Loop in Montbello is a vibrant community initiative designed to encourage active transportation and foster community engagement. This innovative concept creates a pedestrian-friendly pathway that connects key areas within our neighborhood, providing a safe and enjoyable way to explore the local surroundings.
By promoting walking and cycling as a means of transportation, the Walkable Loop aims to reduce reliance on vehicles, enhance physical activity, and cultivate a stronger sense of community. It encourages residents and visitors alike to embrace the beauty of Montbello on foot or on wheels, fostering connections and interactions along the way.

Electric Passenger Van
The Electric Passenger Van service offers a greener and more convenient transportation option for community organizations in Montbello. This service allows organizations to conveniently travel as a group outside of the community, where existing transportation options may not provide the same level of access. Additionally, the Electric Passenger Van service contributes to a cleaner and healthier community by minimizing the environmental impact associated with traditional transportation methods. Learn more about the Electric Passenger Van and how your organization can sign up.

Electric Charging
Station
The goal of Montbello Moves’ Electric Charging Station initiative is to support sustainable transportation options and promote the adoption of electric vehicles, contributing to a cleaner and greener community. While we are still in the early phases of this initiative, we are excited to be in the process of installing our first electric vehicle (EV) charging station and aim to play a significant role in stewarding the development of this essential infrastructure. We will continue to update this page with progress updates on the first EV charging station and upcoming installations, as well as information on benefits, locations, charging options, etiquette, sustainability advantages, and future expansion plans of our Electric Charging Station network. Together, we can pave the way for a more sustainable future in Montbello.
