Policies on bringing devices inside fixed route buses
Mobility devices such as wheelchairs, powered wheelchairs, and powered scooters with a seat are all allowed inside Pace’s fixed route buses.
All other skateboards, electric bikes and scooters that fold to dimensions about the size of a suitcase can be brought on buses if properly stowed and powered off.
Please be advised that passengers that bring their folding bikes and scooters onboard the bus are subject to the following conditions:
- The bike or scooter cannot have a gasoline or alternative fuel engine. The bike or scooter must be folded prior to boarding and remain fully folded while on board.
- The bike or scooter must be powered off and remain powered off for the entire time the passenger is on board.
- As in all cases of large objects, the bike or scooter should be stored between seats or behind a barrier and under the control of the passenger to ensure the safety of all passengers.
- Bikes and scooters and their components shall never be left unattended, discarded, or abandoned.
Any personal electric bikes or e-scooters that do not fold are not allowed inside Pace buses.
Policies on putting bicycles on the rack on the front (exterior) of the bus
Bike racks can be used for both personal standard manual-powered and personal electric bikes, if the bike weighs no more than 55 pounds, has a wheelbase up to 44 inches, a tire width up to 2.3 inches, and wheel size between 20 inches and 29 inches.
Divvy and similar bikeshare bikes are not allowed on Pace bus bike racks.
For additional information on using the bike racks on Pace buses, visit Bikes on Buses.
Policies on bringing devices inside paratransit buses
Mobility devices such as wheelchairs, powered wheelchairs, and powered scooters with a seat are all allowed inside Pace’s paratransit buses.
All other skateboards, electric bikes and scooters that fold to dimensions about the size of a suitcase can be brought onto paratransit buses if properly stowed and powered off. Any personal electric bikes or e-scooters that do not fold are not allowed inside Pace buses. Paratransit vehicles do not have exterior bike racks so bicycles or e-bikes cannot be brought onto a Pace paratransit bus.
