Clean Air Council is working with the Southeastern Pennsylvania Transportation Authority (SEPTA) to promote their new Bike Racks on Buses Program. As more and more buses are installed with bike racks, the Council will be working closely with SEPTA to develop a series of educational materials to assist Philadelphia-area residents in participating in the Bike Racks on Buses Program.

SEPTA has a goal of installing bike racks on all buses by 2006! As of summer 2005, close to 90% of all city bus routes and close to 100% of all suburban bus routes have been equipped with racks. For an updated list of bus routes equipped with bike racks, visit www.septa.org.
