Culver City Releases Bike Share Feasibility Study
Today the City of Culver City released a Bike Share Feasibility Study evaluating the costs and benefits of bringing bike share to Culver City. The report recommends partnering with Metro and the City of Los Angeles to implement a smart bike system throughout Culver City and the nearby Los Angeles neighborhoods of Palms, Mar Vista, Del Rey, and Playa Vista. The recommended 620-bike system would serve 140,000 residents and 100,000 employees in a 12.2-square-mile service area spanning from Lincoln Boulevard to La Cienega Boulevard.
For more information about the proposed bike share system, download the full Bike Share Feasibility Study report here.
