bike share

NEW YORK—In the last decade the risk for serious injury for bicyclists in New York City has gone down about 75 percent, according to New York Department of Transportation (DOT).

New York City has finally joined other major metropolitan locations around the world that have public bikes for rent.

The New York City bike share program is days away from fully launching. As of Friday morning, more than 850 Citi Bike bicycles were already docked in the grey stations that have been assembled in Manhattan and Brooklyn in past weeks.

The new, long-awaited bike share program in New York City is set to launch Memorial Day weekend, the last weekend of May, according to the Manhattan Chamber of Commerce.

The start date for the bike-share system coming to New York has been delayed again, from March to May 2013, due to damage from Hurricane Sandy.

The reason behind the delay of the beginning of the city’s massive bike shares system is technology, according to Mayor Michael Bloomberg.

An influx of 10,000 bikes has the potential to overload the city’s streets some say, making planning key for a smooth roll out of the new bikeshare system in July.

The beginning of a massive bike share system in the city is expected in July.

As spring and summer approach, a series of community planning workshops will be held in the coming months, to decide where bike share stations should be placed in different neighborhoods.

Two Wheel Transit: NYC Bike Share, a new exhibit at the Center for Architecture, is designed to help New Yorkers understand the planned system and elicit feedback, while the vague timeline has not been made clearer.
