Автобусы метро удобны для велосипедистов и доступны
Велосипед в пути
Использование велосипеда для передвижения стало более популярным, и автобусы Metro предлагают простой способ включить велосипед в поездку на работу. Передние полки каждого автобуса вмещают до трех велосипедов, а загружать и выгружать велосипед на транзитной остановке очень просто — просто скажите водителю, прежде чем сделать это... Езда на велосипеде с транзитом — это просто, весело и удобно!
Доступность
Все автобусы имеют пандусы перед входом. Если у вас есть инвалидное кресло или детская коляска, или если вам нужна дополнительная помощь при посадке в автобус, попросите у водителя пандус.
Места непосредственно за водителем предназначены для людей с ограниченными возможностями, пожилых водителей или родителей с маленькими детьми. Используйте ремни безопасности для крепления таких предметов, как коляски и кресла-коляски.
