BART Holding Grand Opening Wednesday for New Bike Parking Station

BART will hold a grand opening Wednesday for the 19th Street Uptown Bike Station in Oakland, officials with the San Francisco Bicycle Coalition said. A ceremony will take place at 10:30 a.m. at 1775 Broadway, near BART’s 19th Street transit station.

Coalition officials said every month BART sets new ridership records, so it’s important to have parking for bikes. The new bike station will have attendants, free parking for 120 bikes and a small shop for accessories and maintenance.
