Park and Ride
In need of a bike space? New to Downtown is the Third Avenue Bike Station, featuring 50 parking spaces for those two-wheel mobiles. Located just a block from Market Square, the station is equipped with a free, public parking area, a bike fix-it station, and a 24-space storage locker, available for an annual lease of $100. The initiative, led by BikePGH, is part of a continuing partnership with the city to make Pittsburgh a more bike-friendly place. A total of 500 racks are located all around Pittsburgh, from Lawrenceville to Squirrel Hill, along with many different bike trails totaling miles. Moreover, Pittsburgh is a bronze-level, bike friendly community that earned the title of one of the top 30 bikefriendly cities in America. “From installing green bike lanes and launching a citywide bike share system, to increasing the number of bike racks, lanes and on-street corrals, we continue to work to make Pittsburgh a world-class, bike-friendly city,� says Mayor Luke Ravenstahl.
