RTC Washoe Conducting Bike Share Study
Aug. 14, 2015
In many communities people are able to rent a bike, get to where they need to go and then leave it securely for someone else to use. The RTC is conducting public outreach to measure whether such a bike share program would be viable in Washoe County. The study will identify costs, goals and performance measures.
Encouraging transportation, other than in vehicles, promotes health and keeps our air cleaner. The study is part of the RTC’s on-going commitment to encourage green trips and maintain the region’s status as a bicycle friendly community.
Based on input received so far, preliminary locations have been identified for bike share amenities, if a program were to be instituted.
