IMAGINE COVERING YOUR TRANSPORTATION NEEDS FOR 25 DOLLARS A YEAR. THAT’S THE COST OF PARTICIPATING IN ALBUQUERQUE’S BIKE SHARE PROGRAM WHICH BEGINS ON MAY 15TH. YOU CAN SIGN UP FOR IT ON WEDNESDAY, APRIL 22ND, FROM 9AM TO 4PM ON CIVIC PLAZA, AT A COST OF 25 DOLLARS.
LOLA BIRD WITH “A-B-Q MAIN-STREET” TELLS US THEY THINK THERE WILL BE A REAL DEMAND FOR THIS SERVICE. SHE SAYS A LOT OF DOWNTOWN RESIDENTS ARE INTERESTED IN SEEING THE PROJECT LAUNCHED AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.
THE BIKES WILL BE AT NUMEROUS STATIONS AROUND THE DOWNTOWN AREA. INITIALLY, THE PROGRAM IS SET TO RUN FOR ONE YEAR BUT ADDITIONAL FUNDING WILL LIKELY EXTEND IT.
