The City of Beaverton is looking to adopt a dockless bike share system and has sent to companies an official request for information learn more about such programs.
This request is part of the Active Transportation Plan of Beaverton for 2017, which calls for implementing a bike share program in the city. City officials claim such a program will help to alleviate congestion in the city.
Officials add that the metropolitan area of the city will add 10,000 new residents and 4,500 new jobs over the next 25 years. This potential increase in congestion on local roadways can be lessened by offering multimodal opportunities for residents to get to their jobs and add biking as a way for accessing recreational activities.
More information about such programs can be provided to residents by means of flyer printing companies. However, some residents are already familiar with such programs as the World Headquarters of Nike, which is in Beaverton and has its own bike share system. Employees and visitors to its headquarters are availed of it 400 bikes which enable people to travel from the offices to transit systems which are nearby.
Beaverton plans to do a pilot of the program for one year and then implement it as a permanent means of transportation if it proves successful. Once responses are accepted to the request for information by the city, it will use those responses to create a request for proposals.
