Look who is back? back again!

🚲 Welcome back Beryl Bikes!

Beryl Bikes have officially returned to Stevenage. To start with, an initial fleet of 60 upgraded bikes are being introduced throughout the week, with 19 parking bays primarily located in the town centre available for use.

More bikes and bays across a wider area will be introduced in the coming weeks.

You can find out more about the bikes, including their availability and the bays available, on Beryl’s website: https://beryl.cc/ or by downloading the app.

Please look after and respect the bikes. They are a fantastic asset for the town, and we are working closely with Beryl and Hertfordshire Police to monitor them. If you come across a bike that has sustained visible damage, please report this to Police in the first instance by either calling 101 or by submitting a Police report through the www.herts.police.uk website. If you see a bike that has been abandoned, but doesn’t appear to have visible damage, please report this to Beryl via either the chatbot on the Beryl App or the Beryl website.

A list of Frequently Asked Questions is available on the council website: https://www.stevenage.gov.uk/news-and-events/news/return-of-the-beryl-bikes.

🚲 Happy cycling Stevenage!

Just over a month ago a new e-bike share scheme launched in the town. In the first month alone, there have been:

🚲 8,000 e-bike rides
🚗 2,000 car journeys replaced
😀 2,000 hours of physical activity

You can find out more about the scheme and how you can hire a bike on the Beryl website: https://beryl.cc/scheme/stevenage.

The scheme is operated by Beryl on behalf of the council and has been funded in part by funding awarded to Stevenage in 2021 as part of government’s Towns Fund, through the Stevenage Development Board.

Riders have now made approximately 30 million journeys since the UK’s shared e-scooter trials began in summer 2020, according to Zag Daily’s latest data research.

There are currently 24,000 shared e-scooters divided into 45 fleets available as part of the UK trials.

This comes as the existing e-scooter trial that runs to 30 November 2022 will come to an end, and local authorities must now decide whether to withdraw from the trials or continue with an extension to 31 May 2024. The new trial is to allow the UK government enough time to better understand the benefits of properly regulated, safety-tested e-scooters and their impact on public space.

A strong case for the potential benefits of micromobility for UK cities. It also acknowledges some of the challenges and risks involved in implementing micromobility services, such as safety, accessibility, and equity. But Stevenage has over 45km of cycleways, making it one of the best towns in the UK for traveling by e-scooter or e-bicycle.

What’s your thoughts?
