Harvard works to improve bicycle access, mobility, and safety around campus. Through these efforts, Harvard has installed thousands of bike parking spaces including covered and secure locations. Racks are primarily installed and maintained by building managers.

For up-to-date bike parking locations and recommended routes refer to Harvard's [interactive online map.](http://map.harvard.edu/?ctrx=759881&ctry=2962020.5&level=8&layers=Campus%20Base%20and%20Buildings,Bike%20Facilities,Map%20Text)

## Policies 

Unless otherwise noted, campus racks are for short-term bicycle parking only, defined as three or fewer consecutive days. Bicycles parked on racks for prolonged periods or showing signs of abandonment are subject to removal.

- Bicycle parking on all Harvard bike racks requires a [Harvard University Police Department (HUPD) sticker](http://www.hupd.harvard.edu/bicycle-registration).
- If your bicycle is missing, please contact HUPD at (617) 495-1215.
