Capital Corridor Community Bike Share

The Central Vermont Regional Planning Commission (CVRPC) is seeking proposals for the production of a scoping study to identify alternatives, issues, and costs related to the design and planning of a community-operated micromobility service, including a bike-share system. The study should estimate the startup cost for a community bike-share and provide recommendations for implementation. The selected consultant will work closely with CVRPC, stakeholders, and community representatives to ensure the success of the project. Key aspects of the study include determining the appropriate fleet size and type, as well as strategies to make the system accessible to a broad range of users. • The study should identify potential sponsors and institutional partners for the bike-share system. • The consultant should provide recommendations for the design and planning of the system, including the identification of potential locations for bike-share stations. • The study should estimate the costs associated with implementing and operating the bike-share system. • The consultant should provide a plan for community engagement and outreach to ensure the success of the project.
