Bicycles on trains
Transperth welcomes bicycles on our trains, because we recognise the contribution cyclists make towards a cleaner and healthier community and environment. So, with a few simple rules, travelling the trains with your bike is easy.
Consider the Lock 'n' Leave: Transperth provides free bike lockers and u-rails at all suburban train stations. Bike lockers at train stations are constructed to Australian Roads part 14 design guidelines.
Observe on-board etiquette: Please don't block entrances with your bike, or leave it where it can fall or be knocked over.
Observe the peak flow and counterflow conditions as outlined in the table below. Please refer to your train timetable for specific trips when bikes are not permitted on train services.
Chainless unicycles are accepted on all Transperth train services, space permitting. Chainless unicycles must be kept out of the aisles and not take up a seat that another passenger may use.
