Video: Bicycle Sharing System or Repair Yourself or...

SSTattler

  1. Edmonton tried Bicycle Sharing System (2005 to 2008 operated by the Peoples' Pedal organization) and it failed! - they have to try it again (maybe try with Bixi)BTW, for years they have a great  Edmonton Bicycle Commuters' Society and BikeWorks!
  2. Europe has a great Bicycle Sharing System; USA is second after Europe - lots of bike cities; Canada is just started with (Bixi) Ottawa, Montreal and Toronto, (Sobi) Hamilton - more coming!
  3. I used, mostly, examples of Edmonton Bicycle Commuter's Society but all the cities have the very similar bike cities.

EBC Sweeps 100 Ave Bike Lane

Published on May 10, 2013

It is the City of Edmonton's responsibility to maintain bike lanes so that they are safe and functional year-round.

They currently prioritize bike lanes at the same level as alleyways.

Despite repeated requests from many citizens via 311, bike lane and multi-use trail maintenance in 2013 has been dismal, and several weeks after making requests many routes continue to be dangerous or unusable.

The Edmonton Bicycle Commuters' Society couldn't wait any longer for the contra-flow bike lane at the curve around Victoria Promenade, which has been covered with a thick layer of sand, gravel and glass. Avoiding those hazards means veering out into the outside bend of (often fast moving) oncoming traffic.

So we took a broom from home and swept up.
