Travel: Voi E-Bikes

Written by

There has been an expansion of the 'Voi' E-Bike 'active travel' facility in the GPCC area, notably around King's Buildings and up towards Marchmont. Some of the early site selections for 'bike bays' (made in conjunction with Council officers) look 'awkward'. I would point to the Grange Loan / Kilgraston Road junction as an example. There are others. We want the hire scheme to work. It is going to expand further. At the same time, pedestrian and road users have to be safeguarded from bike 'clutter' and bike 'abandonment'. Report 'incidents' in the first instance via this link: https://www.edinburgh.gov.uk/roads-travel-parking/cycle-hire-scheme . Contact GPCC with cases of repeated bike misuse. (The contact point is at the top of the page.)
