Metro is proposing a new policy that would allow bicyclists to bring their bikes on Metro “during all hours.” Currently, from 7-10 am and 4-7 pm (aka commuting time) you cannot bring your bicycle on a Metro train. This is a great first step towards a more accessible DC.

Proposed Policy

“Bicycles are permitted on Metrorail during all hours. However, use your good judgement and only board cars that can comfortably accommodate you and your bicycle. Bicyclists must yield priority seating to seniors and people with disabilities, yield to other passengers, and not block aisles or doors.”

Adopting this policy would be a great first step towards a more accessible DC.
