 Would you feel safe using a bicycle from the proposed station?
 1000 ft. or 5 minute walk of another bike share station
 CANNOT block ADA access or public utility access
 Bicycle-friendly area – easy, convenient access to existing bicycle infrastructure (lanes, trails, routes)
Let’s create a safe, connected network of stations!
 Near transit – first and last mile connectivity
 Activity center or destination
 Public or private property – private property needs public easement
 Need good visibility (safety) & access to sunlight
 Surface – needs to be concrete or asphalt – gravel or vegetated areas might be OK
(depends on where)
