The program that rolled out today means that cyclists can take their bicycles on CTrains at all times, instead of being restricted to non-peak hours.

Those who take want to travel with their bikes on CTrain can do so if there is room for them at two bikes per bulkhead section of a car. They must yield space to seniors and customers with disabilities, mobility equipment or strollers.

 

Cyclists should also wait until non-cyclists board the train. They are also only permitted to enter or leave using the doors for bikes designated with the bicycle symbol and should remain in the open areas of the CTrain car without blocking access to the CTrain doors at any time.

They are also not allowed to ride the cycles on the CTrain platform and onto the CTrain.

The program will run until Aug. 31st. Calgary Transit will assess the program and will decide on the path forward based on the feedback.
