The CoMoUK annual Bike Share Report (released for the UK and Scotland) provides key insight into understanding the performance and impacts of the UK’s bike share schemes.
The 8th annual report provides new insights into the impact of bike share schemes, with CoMoUK highlighting “It provides new evidence for the positive environmental, economic and social effects of bike share schemes on individuals and communities. More than two thirds of respondents reported an increase in their trips by bike. This will be supported by greater access to e-bikes. E-bikes now outnumber conventional pedal bikes in the fleets of UK bike share schemes. 57% of the approximate 25 million hires per year, (between September 2022 and September 2023), were made with e-bikes.”
Key findings
1. Bike sharing motivates people to take up cycling.
