COMMISSION MEMORANDUM

TO:Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Commission 
FROM:Commissioner Ricky Arriola 
DATE:October  17, 2018
 



SUBJECT:REFERRAL TO THE FINANCE AND CITYWIDE PROJECTS COMMITTEE & THE NEIGHBORHOOD/COMMUNITY AFFAIRS COMMITTEE TO DISCUSS ESTABLISHING A PILOT PROGRAM FOR DOCKED ELECTRIC ASSISTED BICYCLE SHARING SERVICES.

ANALYSIS

Please place this item on the October 17, 2018 City Commission agenda.

 

RideOn is an international company that provides docked electric assisted bicycle sharing services. Last year, the Miami-Dade Department of Transportation and Public Works determined there is a market for bicycle rentals at Metrorail Stations, so it procured RideOn to provide that service. I ask that the Finance and Citywide Projects Committee & the Neighborhoods and Community Affairs Committee explore the establishment of a pilot program to determine if a docked electric assisted bicycle sharing service is an efficient mobility option that improves convenience for existing transit customers and attracts new customers to public transit.
