How to Safely Bring Your Bike on a BART Escalator

Beginning January 1, 2024, bikes will be allowed on most of the escalators throughout the BART system*, pursuant to a Board of Directors vote at their September 28, 2023 meeting. The vote authorizes further changes to BART’s bike rules, including allowing bikes on all train cars except the first car (biked were previously banned from the first three cars during commute times), and allowing bicyclists to secure bikes on BART instead of holding them. *Bikes will remain banned from BART’s ten narrow escalators located at the following three stations: 19th Street Oakland, Antioch and Oakland Airport Connector
