Regional Roundup
Question of the Week
Tuesday we asked: A new bike-share program started in September in Worcester, with 300 bikes available to rent for $1 an hour. In July, a pedicab startup called WooRides began offering rides in foot-powered vehicles.
How popular can bike-based alternative modes of transportation be in Worcester?
  • good luck in January
  • I for one am extremely hopeful that they will have a very positive impact on the city. Perhaps it will be somewhat limited for a while. But it is a great thing to have in Worcester!
  • Bikes will be attractive to those who have strength and lack money. That sounds like the college crowd to me. Of course, a lot of them may want to own rather than rent. OK idea for a few people downtown. Would likely work better in cities that aren't built on seven hills. I'll bet the photo op was the last time we'll see city officials on them.
