Bicycles

Bike racks are a free service and all buses serving regular routes are equipped with them.

They’re mounted on the front of each bus and each rack can hold up to two bikes. Whether you’re loading or unloading a bike, watch for traffic and make sure the driver can see you at all times.

We’ve made loading a bicycle as easy as possible; instructions are printed on the rack as a reminder. Let the driver know you’ll be using the bike rack.  Make sure there aren’t any loose items attached to the bike. Squeeze the handle to lower the rack, place your bike in the rack, and secure it by raising the support arm to the top of your bike’s front tire. Please load your bicycle in the innermost slot with the handlebars facing the curb. If a bike is already in the rack, load your bike in the outside slot with the handlebars facing the street. If you need assistance, just ask your driver. That’s it, you’re all ready to board the bus. 

When you’re at your destination, exit out of the front of the bus and let your driver know you need to get your bike. Remove and lower the support arm and lift your bike out of the rack. If there is no other bike in the rack and no one is waiting to load a bike, please return the rack to its upright position and make sure it locks in place. Let the driver know you’re finished by stepping back to the sidewalk and then wait until the bus pulls away before you get on your bike.
