Greater Manchester’s Starling Bank Bike Hire scheme is set to add 300 new e-bikes, with over half the fleet being electric by summer 2025. This upgrade supports the city's goal for 1 million more sustainable journeys by 2040. Twelve Cycle Hubs have been rebranded, offering secure bike parking near public transport. By the end of March, 130km of segregated walking, wheeling, and cycling routes will be completed, with 176km planned by 2027. The bike hire scheme, currently in #Manchester, #Salford, and #Trafford, will expand to new locations and integrate with the Bee Network’s fare system. Dame Sarah Storey and Mayor Andy Burnham highlighted these steps to improve cycling access, safety, and integration with other #transport modes, including the future possibility of bike carriage on #trams.

Three light blue and yellow Starling Bank hire bicycles are parked on a grey block-paved area in the foreground, angled towards a large, bright yellow double-decker bus behind them. The bus displays "No tickets. No fuss. Tap and go on bus with contactless" and a "BEE NETWORK" logo, with a ramp extended from its front doors. In the background, to the left, stands a large, ornate stone building under a clear, bright blue sky, illustrating a modern urban transport scene. Photo by TfGM

@samsterby @baggetun To be honest, this track was very useful for me to commute to work and back. You could jump on at the station at the end of my road and then hop off directly in the city center. It's very good at serving the local towns surrounding Manchester City Center.

I liked that it ran the older trains too. They were a little dirty and, like most of Manchester, needs a good clean, but it gave it a little more charm.
