Metro Bike Share Community Ride: Hollywood Blvd Bike Lanes

Get ready to pedal through the new bike lanes on Hollywood Blvd with LADOT and Metro Bike Share! We’re hosting a fun, all-ages bike ride, and everyone’s invited. It’s a great, supportive way to explore the vibrant new lanes, meet your neighbors, and enjoy the sights and sounds of one of the most iconic streets in Los Angeles!

LADOT recently completed safety and mobility improvements on Hollywood Blvd between Gower St and Hillhurst Ave to prioritize safety for everyone and improve the street for people biking and walking. An upcoming Phase 2 will continue the upgrades on Sunset Blvd to Fountain Ave. Learn more about the project here.
