Hong Kong's first batch of shared bicycles put into use: with global positioning system
Hundreds of bicycles equipped with global satellite positioning equipment and available for users to use the mobile phone application software to accompany the borrowed bicycles were put into use in various places in the New Territories on the 20th and became the first shared bicycles in Hong Kong. This batch of shared bicycles is unified in bright green, equipped with baskets, smart lights, and networked anti-theft systems. Users can start renting a car after registering, binding a credit card and paying a deposit of HK$399 through the mobile application.
The user can use the map in the mobile phone application to find a shared bicycle that can be used around and scan the QR code on the body to start using it. The current charge is HK$5 per half hour.
According to Mysharebike, a service provider, the introduction of shared bicycles in Hong Kong is intended to solve the problem of convenience in the “last mile†of commuting in densely populated areas, and at the same time it helps promote green travel. At present, the relevant mobile phone applications only have the Android version, and the program for the Apple operating system is expected to be put into use soon.
In total, more than 1,000 shared bicycles will be put into use in this week, and the locations will be concentrated in some areas where the bicycle-related facilities in the New Territories are relatively complete. The start-up company set up in Hong Kong plans to increase the number of its shared bicycles to about 20,000 by July this year. At the end of this year, it will expand shared bicycle services to Kowloon, Hong Kong and other places.
The Hong Kong Cycling Federation welcomed this move and was optimistic about the development potential of shared bicycle services in the urban area. The chairman of this organization, Martin Turner, said that the sharing of bicycle services based on mobile applications "will conquer the world", Hong Kong prior to other cities to carry out this service is a "great" choice.
However, there are media reports that Hong Kong people have more land and less land. Kowloon, Hong Kong Island and other places are more narrow roads and there is a lack of bicycle lanes. It is also a question of where to park shared bicycles.
In response, Raphael Cohen, the company's chief executive, said that the company had already communicated with the relevant government departments of the SAR government about parking issues.
