...provides FREE sidewalk bicycle parking racks throughout New York City to encourage cycling for commuting, short trips and errands. CityRacks are not intended to be used for long-term parking.

Due to high volumes of requests for CityRacks, NYCDOT will be prioritizing installation in areas that would benefit from clusters of bicycle parking such as transit stops, commercial corridors and other neighborhood destinations.

Racks can be requested online by proprietors or residents.
