Hi all,
In the past month or so, several ACTION buses here in Canberra have been
driving around with bike racks on their fronts but signs saying they are not
yet in operation. I asked what the deal was and got the following reply:
Thanks for your email on bike racks.
The bike racks you have seen are on trial only, to sort out any operational
issues that may occur. The bike racks will then be fitted to a larger number
of buses and the public will then be able to use the bike racks, however I
don't have an actual start date at this stage..
Before these bike racks come into operation, ACTION will commence a
communications campaign designed to tell you everything you need to know
about using the bike racks (they're very easy to use!).
I hope this information is of assistance. I would suggest you keep a look
out on our website, as this will have information on the bike racks as soon
as the start date is announced.

It's a great idea, especially given the distances some commuters might have
to travel in Canberra to get to work. The racks look similar to those I've
seen in Seattle in the US where they are frequently used and well thought
of. Anyone else got them on their local buses?
