Exciting news – Vbikes, a dockless bikeshare operator, will be conducting a pilot through November 30th in Waltham! Likely, you have already seen their bright yellow bikes around Waltham this fall, as they have been operating at Bentley and Brandeis Universities. 

This short pilot will allow both the City and interested community members to learn more about this new ‘dockless’ type of bikeshare which is similar to Hubway but without the expense or limitations of docking stations. Information from this pilot will help understand how to make bikeshare successful in Waltham.  

If you wish to learn more about this type of bikeshare and where the bicycles are located, go to http://vbikes.com or download their app.

The pilot is expected to run through the end of November and public feedback is welcomed at the Planning Department (781) 314-3370 or to ccagle@city.waltham.ma.us
