  • Abstract:
    The purpose of the Bicycle Parking Plan for Miami-Dade Transit is to develop recommendations for new and improved bicycle parking facilities at Metrorail stations, park-and-ride lots and other transit hubs. In order to develop recommendations for new and improved bicycle parking facilities, the research was divided into several tasks. The first task was to conduct a review of the communities/transit agencies that have recently developed bicycle parking plans and/or integrated bicycles with transit using innovative methods. The first task also included a review of ten bicycle parking products/concepts in order to provide information on the types of parking devices available and estimated costs. The second task focused on an assessment of current conditions at all Metrorail and selected Metrobus hubs, and the creation of a digital photo log of the bicycle parking facilities already in place. The next set of tasks involved developing and conducting a survey of bicyclists that use Miami-Dade Metrorail and Metrobus to identify their perceptions of current conditions and improvement needs. This set of tasks involved the design and distribution of a flyer announcing the survey, the development of the survey instrument, and implementation. The data collected from the survey and interviews were analyzed to develop an understanding of the needs, wants and experiences of bicyclists that currently use the bus and rail systems. Following the survey, the bicycle locker management system was reviewed in reference to management systems developed by other transit agencies, and plans for new transit hubs in the Cities of Homestead and Miami Beach were also examined to provide bicycle parking recommendations. The project's final report is designed to provide recommendations for types, amounts and locations of bicycle parking needed for Metrorail and Metrobus hubs, estimated costs and potential funding sources, guidance for inclusion of bike parking in planned transit hubs, and a management plan for the administration and promotion of bicycle parking facilities. /Abstract from report, p.
