Bicycling

Bicycle Pedestrian Master Plan

Approved by the City Commission in 2019, The Bicycle Pedestrian Master Plan sets forth short-term and long-term goals for the City to decrease congestion by improving bicycle and pedestrian accessibility.

Bicycle Registration

Residents may register their bicycles with the Key West Police Department.  Registration can discourage theft and aid in the recovery of a lost or stolen bike.  To register your bicycle, ride to the front of the Police Station located at 1604 N Roosevelt Blvd.

Crosstown Greenway Project

The Crosstown Greenway is a designated bicycle route running east and west through the center of the City.  Several enhancements were installed in 2020 as the Crosstown Greenway Pilot Project Phase I.

Bicycle Parking

There are thousands of short-term bicycle parking locations across Key West available for use by residents and visitors.  Find them all here: Key West Bicycle Racks.

Electric Bicycles and Motorized Scooters

E-Bikes and motorized scooters provide a great way to get around Key West.

Local Restrictions

Due to the often narrow and congested sidewalks in Key West, generally, the sidewalks are available only for pedestrian and non-electric bicycle use.  Exceptions to this allow for ADA compliance and usage along areas marked as "multi-use trails."

Multi-Use Trails

Designated "multi-use trails" include a sidewalk area where it is permissible to operate an electric bicycle, motorized scooter, or other micromobility device provided that the operator yields to pedestrians and doesn't exceed 15mph.  

Public Transportation

Bus routes and real-time information are available online at Key West Transit.
