Beijing launched a pilot service on May 10 that allows passengers to bring their bicycles onto the subway train, as the number of cycling enthusiasts and demand for cross-district rides grow in the capital.
According to the Beijing Municipal Commission of Transport, starting May 10, passengers can bring single-seat, human-powered two-wheel bicycles with a wheel diameter of up to 28 inches (about 71 cm) onto subway trains at 11 pilot stations across four lines, namely Line 6, Line 17, the Changping Line and the S1 Line.
