Bike to Work Day

Caltrain would like to express its support for Bike to Work Day on Thursday, May 17. Cyclists help reduce pollution from cars, help reduce traffic congestion on roads and, and contribute toward improved health of the region just by riding a bike.

Despite this general support of cycling and Bike to Work Day, Caltrain wants its cyclist patrons to be aware that bike space on trains is limited, and Caltrain does not currently have the capacity to expand that space. Cyclists are encouraged to use bicycle storage facilities at most stations, as an alternative to taking their bikes on the train.

Every day, Caltrain carries approximately 2,000 bike commuters, and thousands of others park their bikes at their origin station to pick up on their return. For more information about Caltrain bike access on trains and at stations, visit the link HERE.
