Effective December 1, BART will allow bikes on all trains at all times—with the exception of the peak commute hours (7 am to 9 am and 4:30 pm and 6:30 pm) when bikes will not be allowed to board the first three cars of any train. The first three car rule provides an option for those who want to avoid bikes altogether.
Other safety rules relating to bikes will still apply:
• no bikes allowed in the first train car at any time;
• bikes are never allowed on crowded trains;
• bicyclists must yield priority seating to seniors and those with disabilities; and
• bikes are not to block doorways or aisles and are not allowed on escalators.
