Summit Conservancy is fundraising
New Bike Depot at the Summit Train Station
Better bike storage at the Summit train station!
Have you wished for a better way to park your bike at the train station? The bike boxes are fine, but this is better!
The Summit Conservancy, in cooperation with the New Jersey Bike & Walk Coalition and the City of Summit, is leading a community-wide effort to raise $20,000 to build the Bike Depot. Similar bike depots have been constructed in Montclair, Bloomfield, and Elizabeth. The planned Summit Conservancy Bike Depot will replace the existing, unattractive bike storage boxes, and will be so much more! It will be a walk-in facility that is lighted, secure, and dry. It will also have a repair stand and outlets for charging electric bikes.
Riding your bike to the train helps keep Summit green!

The depot will offer

An attractive addition to our downtown
The Bike Depot will be built six months after fundraising is completed. Donate now to turn this forgotten corner near the train station into an attractive and environmentally friendly asset to Summit’s downtown!
