Bicycle Transportation Program

Always slow down and cross streetcar tracks at a 60-90 degree angle. Crossing incorrectly can result in your front tire sliding on the rail or getting stuck in the gap next to the rail, which can cause you to fall from your bicycle.

In order to cross at the right angle, you may need to turn a little away from the track first, and then cross it. Make sure to slow down first, look behind you, and signal if appropriate.

Streetcar tracks become slippery when wet. Use caution riding in the rain or in winter weather.
