Philadelphia Bikeshare Concept Study
City of Philadelphia; William Penn Foundation; Bicycle Coalition of Greater Philadelphia
This report examines the potential for success of a proposed bikeshare program in Philadelphia. It includes a comprehensive planning-level analysis of the bikeshare concept while also exploring key ancillary issues -- such as bike-lane infrastructure and interoperability with public transit -- that are likely to influence the potential success of the system.
Interpretation of the results suggests a positive expectation for the potential success of bikeshare in Philadelphia, and also helps indicate a set of actions and guidelines for how to best move the concept forward.
