Bikes and Buses
We make it easy to combine biking and transit. You can leave your bike at one of the many area park & ride bike racks or lockers or bring it with you on the bus. Bikes are a great way to get to or from a bus stop or to meet a carpool or vanpool. Every bus and train in the Puget Sound region is equipped with a bike rack. Vanpools can be equipped with racks on request. Bikes travel free on public transportation on a first-come, first-served basis.
Take your bike on the bus!
Every
Community Transit bus is equipped with a bike rack. Bike racks are on the front of most buses; on Swift bus rapid transit,
racks are inside the bus. It is your responsibility
to load and unload your bicycle; the bus driver cannot assist you. Cyclists assume all responsibility for any damage and/or injury that occurs as a result of using the bike racks. Bikes
may be loaded or unloaded at any bus stop, including in Downtown
Seattle.
The front bike rack holds most two-wheeled bicycles with
16-inch or larger diameter wheels. Bikes with child carriers or
no-spoke wheels cannot be put on the rack, and some bikes with wide
handlebars or long wheelbases won't fit. Mopeds and scooters are not
allowed.

Forget your bike on the bus?
It might be at our Lost & Found. Bicycles and other lost & found items are turned into Community Transit's RideStore. To claim a lost bike, call the RideStore at (425) 348-2350. Due to space limitations, bikes are only held for 10 days. The RideStore is located at the Lynnwood Transit Center, 20110 46th Ave. W, just west of the Interurban Trail. It is open Monday through Friday, 7 a.m. to 6 p.m.
Bike lockers at park & rides
A
bike locker is a secure, weatherproof way to store your bike while you complete your trip on a bus, carpool or vanpool.
Bike locker rental is available to the public on a first-come,
first-served basis, at a rental rate of $60 per year plus a
conditionally-refundable deposit of $50. For more information on
Community Transit's bike locker program, contact the Bike Locker
Coordinator at bikelockers@commtrans.org or (425) 348-2332.
Bikes with child carriers, long wheelbases (such as recumbents) or wide handlebars might not fit into bike lockers.
