From September 19 through October 20, 2014 colorful decals decorated the sidewalks at potential bike share locations, the result of a partnership between bike share and the Mural Arts Program. The decals invited passersby to comment on potential station locations via text message.

The City of Philadelphia finalized a survey initiative surrounding bike share station planning in December 2014. Over five weeks, we received around 10,000 public comments on 95 potential station locations via an online map, in-person surveys, and text message surveys. We held two all-day open houses at the Gallery at Jefferson Station and at 30th Street Station in November to discuss the results. The report is now available.

Contact cara.ferrentino@phila.gov and aaron.ritz@phila.gov to invite a city representative to your next community meeting or to learn more about the program.

Station planners are still finalizing station locations, and a draft map is available at rideindego.com. Keep checking the website in the coming months for announcements about final station locations, membership options, and launch plans.
