Philadelphia Bike Share is officially coming this spring — and now we know where the city is planning to put those stations. A new report outlines the results of their month-long survey seeking input on 100 potential bike share locations.
The survey drew more than 10,000 comments from the public on the locations. At this point, they’ve split up the potential locations into three categories of when they’ll be installed: Phase 1 (spring 2015), Phase 2 (spring 2016) and (basically) “sometime after that.” Read the full report from Bike Share here, which includes a breakdown of votes and comments from each location.
Below is a map that outlines each of the potential/ probable locations. Click on each point to see the percentage of people who voted “yes” for that location. (Note: Only two locations garnered less than 50 percent “yes” responses — Rittenhouse Sq. NW and Rittenhouse Sq. SE.)
Guide: Red=Phase 1, Blue=Phase 2, Gray=Sometime in the future
