Dockless Bike Share Arrives in Staten Island
Lime and Jump were allowed to bring 300 bikes to the borough, where bike share became available in late July.
A pilot program for dockless bike share has arrived in Staten Island. "The Staten Island pilot will be run by Jump and Lime; the latter will have 200 regular pedal bikes for rent starting today," Tanay Warerkar reports for Curbed New York.
The program will later be expanded to Fordham University and Coney Island. Currently the program only includes 300 bikes, but if there's not local pushback, it is intended to expand.
