Department for Transport written question – answered at on 13 September 2018.
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what steps his Department is taking to encourage train operators to allow passengers' bikes on trains.
The Department recognises the value in the integrated use of cycles and trains.
We expect our franchisees to ensure that their trains meet the needs of their passengers - including the storage of cycles and luggage - with appropriate interior layouts and seating configurations. Where the Department identifies a specific need, it sets requirements on its franchisees to provide space on its trains for the carriage of bicycles.
