The MTA is working on a plan that will add bike racks to the front of buses and outside of train stations, according to a statement released Wednesday.

Front-of-bus bike racks will be installed on three Select Bus Service routes that span four boroughs — the M60 SBS, S79 SBS and the Q44 SBS.

In addition, the MTA will install bike racks near the entrances of the 37 subway stations that do not currently have bike parking. Approximately 68% of subway station entrances currently have a bike rack within 100 feet of the entrance, according to the MTA.

The MTA will also install bike racks at 18 suburban commuter rail stations — five Long Island Railroad stations and 13 Metro North stations — and enhance pathways at facilities operated by MTA Bridges and Tunnels.

MTA Chair and CEO Janno Lieber says the strategic action plan, which is called Extending Transit's Reach, will enable the MTA to attract new customers who use bikes, electric bikes and electric scooters.

"It's time for the MTA to fully embrace bicycle, pedestrian and micromobility access as we plan and expand New York's transit system," Lieber said. "Extending Transit’s Reach provides a framework to better integrate MTA subway, bus, and commuter rail service with the ways that New Yorkers are increasingly using to get around. It will enable the MTA to attract new riders to the system, and to harness increasingly popular modes of transportation to essentially expand the transit system."
