Point Park excitedly awaits Bike Share launch
Bike Share is coming to Pittsburgh this spring with a sizable number of stations (8 of 50) planned for Downtown, the neighborhood in which Point Park University is located.
Pittsburgh’s new Bike Share Program will provide Point Park students with another way to get around the city by simply swiping a credit card or purchasing an online pass.
“You may be on campus and want to go to the Strip, but you don’t want to wait for a bus,” said Beth Hazlett, president of the Board of Pittsburgh Bike Share. “With the Bike Share, you can just grab a bike and zip down and back.”
The new program coincides with the bike lanes that were installed throughout the city last year, providing cyclists with a physical separation from drivers. The Bike Share Program itself will open this spring with 50 docking stations and 500 bikes spread around the city, including Downtown, the Strip District and Oakland.
