Edinburgh's Bike Boom

from Edinburgh News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

Edinburgh’s bike-share program is crushing it—over 53,000 users have racked up nearly half a million trips, covering 1.3 million kilometers since launch last fall. With bikes flying off racks at a rate of 8.4 trips per day (vs. 2-3 elsewhere), this Voi-run scheme is Europe’s most successful, praised by city officials as a vibe-defining success. From 50 to 800 bikes, it’s expanding into Gorgie and Portobello ahead of festivals—and staying vandalism-free. Just one hiccup: GPS parking glitches occasionally park bikes awkwardly; new street markings are coming to fix it. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
