Santa Cruz County Folding Bikes in Buses Incentive Program.
Save up to $200 on a folding bicycle!
Folding Bikes are great for commuting
- Easy to store securely at work and home
- Easy to use with a Metro bus trip
- Inexpensive and reliable
Save up to $70 on two monthly bus passes
Folding bikes are ideal to combine with a bus trip since you can bring a folded bike into the bus (as long as the bike doesn’t block the aisle). Often the bike racks on buses are full for popular bus routes.
