You may know us for our bus, SkyTrain, SeaBus, West Coast Express, and HandyDART service, but we’re more than just transit. We’re here to support you whether you’re taking transit, walking, cycling, or even driving.

Not only is cycling a convenient, healthy, and pollution-free way to get around, it’s also fast! You can travel five times further on bike for the same amount of time and energy expended as walking. For most trips under 5 kilometres, which account for 50 per cent of car trips in Metro Vancouver, a bicycle is faster in urban settings.

When you combine cycling with transit, you can travel even faster and further. Metro Vancouver has facilities and infrastructure that make combining cycling with transit easy, safe, affordable and convenient.

Bikes are welcome onboard transit — including our buses, which are all equipped with bike racks.

There’s Bike Parkades at transit hubs throughout the region, allowing you to easily connect to the SkyTrain, West Coast Express, RapidBus, and other express bus routes. There’s also the bikesharing service, Mobi by Shaw Go.

Across Metro Vancouver, there are 4,600 kilometres in total length of bikeways and 60 per cent of residents live near a bikeway that is considered comfortable for most people, so there’s one near you!

Your options include the BC Parkway, Central Valley Greenway, Canada Line Pedestrian-Bicycling Bridge, and Spirit Trail.
