The “Citi Bike” program had been expected to be launched by the end of July.
The Department of Transportation says it is still working on the launch plan and will update the public as soon as it finalizes all the details.
The program is expected to have 10,000 bikes at 600 docking stations around the city by next year.
People would pay a $95 annual fee to ride the blue, 3-speed bikes.
Short-term users, including tourists, would be able to sign up too.
The program is being sponsored by Citigroup.
these IDIOTS dont know whats going on in real life!
its become a nightmare to do business and drive thru this city, its all about the 10 ppl who are on bikes, and summuns revenue for bloomy, and screw all small business and average ppl.
We have it in montreal. What a pain in the neck to drive when there are 10000 extra cyclists on the road. A lot of them inexperienced as well.
King Bloomberg’s term will end soon (I hope he doest make up another one). Once and when it does, I hope the first thing the new guy does is fire Russia khan.
This city has become a living nightmare because of these cronies. Bike lanes are prioritized over roadways and they make driving extremely dangerous. I don’t know how many time I almost lost my front axle and oil pan because of gaping sink holes in the roads.
