Description
EcoBici is the bicycle sharing system launched in February 2010 by the government of Mexico City.[1] Initially launched with 85 docking stations and 1,000 distinctive red and white liveried bicycles, the network then expanded by September 2013 to be at 276 stations with 4,000 bicycles,[2] and as of April 2015, now has 444 stations with 6,000 bicycles.[3]
The system is run by a private company, Clear Channel, but[4] funded by the government with an initial investment of 75 million pesos (US$5,750,000). Users of the system are required to purchase an RFID card at a cost of 400 pesos (US$30) which will provide them with access to the bicycles for one year. For tourists, a 7-day card can be obtained for 300 pesos, a 3-day card for 180 pesos, and a single day card for 90 pesos. Use of a bicycle is free for the first 45 minutes; extra charges are applied for use beyond this time limit.
