Bicycle sharing system ‘success’ determinants (2017)
Journal Article
Médard de Chardon, C., Caruso, G., & Thomas, I. (2017). Bicycle sharing system ‘success’ determinants. Transportation Research Part A: Policy and Practice, 100, 202-214. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.tra.2017.04.020

Many municipalities assert bicycle sharing systems (BSS) as having many benefits, justifying their adoption, yet few explicitly state the purpose of their system making comparison or determination of success impossible. In addition, the apprehension... Read More about Bicycle sharing system ‘success’ determinants.
