I would advocate a public-private partnership to inspire greater use of bicycles in combination with mass transit. Many potential users of mass transit drive their personal vehicle instead because it takes too long to get to the mass transit stop. When a bike is used to get to/from the mass transit stop, commuters that find walking to the stop impractical can get to the stop in a fraction of the time.



To encourage such behavior, I would provide a government subsidy to mass transit operators so that cyclists ride the mass transit system for free when they have their bicycle with them. To prevent cyclists from being turned away from mass transit due to lack of space for full size bikes, I'd also include a subsidy for mass transit users to buy folding bikes so their bike can accompany the rider aboard the mass transit line.
