BIKES ON THE BUS
The shuttle buses are equipped with bike racks, for two bikes each. If the bike rack is full, riders will have to wait for the next bus.
Bringing bikes on board is not allowed, as they are large, take up space that could be used for other passengers, and could not be strapped in, potentially pose a safety concern during braking or while maneuvering inside a full bus.
There are a few exceptions, some restrictions, and more details on the MTS website.
