Leeds infrastructure has just received a much welcome boost after launch of ‘Beryl Bikes’ across the city.
The company, based in Poole, offers electric bike stations that are available for the public to rent, they are active in over 20 cities across the country and are now available for Leeds commuters as a cheaper, greener alternative to other public transports.
Customers simply have to download an app, create an account and pick a payment plan, including weekly passes, or simply pay as you go for 10p a minute. Then they are free to ride for as long as the bike is charged, and must return it to any beryl station once finished.
Early feedback on the bikes is extremely positive, with the company already being in talks with expanding the service by adding bays as far as New Pudsey and Meanwood. There has often been criticism of Leeds’ existing public transport so the new e-bike system is sure to be welcome edition in West Yorkshire.
