Short term bike parking is available at bike racks throughout Mountain View.
In addition, the City offers rent-free, short-term bicycle storage in the bicycle shelter located at the Downtown Transit Center at the corner of Castro Street and Evelyn Avenue, or at one of the many bicycle lockers found throughout Mountain View’s downtown.
Renting a locker or shelter space is easy. Bring the following to the Public Works Department located on the first floor of City Hall at 500 Castro Street:
- A valid California Driver License, ID card (California only) or passport;
- A description of the bike to be locked/parked;
- The bike’s serial or identification number;
- $25 for a one-time refundable deposit
Once you complete and sign a rental agreement and pay the $25 deposit, you will receive your shelter access code within 5 business days or a bike locker key. Currently, there is a waitlist for bicycle lockers. If you would like your name added to the list, please contact the Public Works Department.
Please note: The bike lockers located on the Mountain View Caltrain platform are not City of Mountain View bike lockers; those are Caltrain lockers. Information on how to use Caltrain's new on-demand e-lockers is available at www.bikelink.org.
