Can you take a bike on a bus in Copenhagen?

Free, but the driver decides.

Answered at: Checked at:

Short answer

Yes: you can bring a bike free of charge on all ordinary Movia buses, but not on some minibus lines. The bike stands in the middle of the bus and must be fastened with the strap, and each person may bring one bike. The staff always decide whether there is room. Some lines do not take bikes on weekdays from 7.00 to 9.00 and 15.30 to 17.30, or on Friday and Saturday nights from 0.30 to 4.30.
