MetroBike, LLC is North America’s first bike-sharing consulting company and the leader of the nascent field. MetroBike’s clients include local and federal governments, non-profits, for-profits, and universities in the U.S. and abroad.
Bike-sharing, or bike transit, is a fleet of bicycles available at a network of unattended stations for short-term use. The concept has been gaining popularity in recent years with successful programs throughout Europe and which is now expanding rapidly to other parts of the world. Successful bike-sharing programs increase bike mode share and personal mobility, decrease pollution, complement existing transit by better reaching underserved locations in a low-cost manner, and provide customers the added benefit of exercise. MetroBike can assist your organization on your bike-sharing consulting needs.
MetroBike consults organizations on the development of bike-sharing services, which include the following services:
- speaking to your group about the benefits of bike-sharing and best practices from around the world,
- selecting a bike-sharing system best suited for your particular needs either through the public tender process or direct procurement,
- developing program policies,
- determining station locations to get the most use of the bikes by customers,
- developing operating and maintenance plans,
- marketing the service,
- evaluating the service once active through customer surveys and usage data analysis,
- and more.
