    Bikes on Metrorail

    There are two ways to bike and ride on Metrorail . You can ride Metrorail with your bike or store your bike in a locker before boading the train. Catch Metrorail with your bike anytime. Just pay your Metrorail fare, roll your bike through the emergency gate, and take the elevator to the platform. Always be prepared to show your bike permit at the request of transit officials. Call the bicycle/pedestrian coordinator, 305-375-1647, for more information.

    • Bicycle Lockers: Lockers are a convenient, strong, weather-safe storage for any regular-size bicycle.  Locker rentals: 3 months, $25; 6 months, $45; 12 months, $70. A $10 key deposit is refunded when the key is returned. Contact the bicycle/pedestrian coordinator, 305-375-1647, for more information.   
    • Metrorail Stations With Bicycle Lockers: Okeechobee, Hialeah, Northside, Government Center, Vizcaya, Douglas Road, South Miami, Dadeland North, Dadeland South.
    • Entering the Rail Station: If you need a Bike & Ride permit, stop at the security officer's booth, show your valid photo ID, and complete an application. Pay your fare at the fare gate next to the emergency gate. Enter the fare gate, then retrieve your bicycle through the emergency gate. Always use the elevator to the platform level.
    • Boarding the Train Car: Wait for the train away from the platform's yellow-tiled edge. Bicycles are permitted only in the rear area of the last car of each train. Up to four cyclists with bikes may ride in the last car, entering any door after all other boarding or exiting passengers.
    • In the Train Car: Bike & Ride passengers may not use the spaces designated for passengers in wheelchairs. Stand only in one of the door spaces, or sit in the seat opposite a wheelchair space. Whether standing or sitting, hold your bike firmly. Blocking the aisle or exits with your bike is prohibited. Avoid leaning your bike against other passengers. 
    • Exiting the Metrorail Station: Allow passengers without bicycles to exit the train first. Use the elevator to reach the ground floor, and exit the station through the emergency gate.
