PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 18, 2024 ~ Bicycle Transit Systems, Inc. (BTS) has announced its acquisition of BCycle from Trek, making it the only docked bike share company in North America with fully integrated end-to-end operations. This strategic move will allow BTS to expand its mobility options in cities nationwide and provide seamless solutions for building, installing, and managing docked, electrified bike share systems.
With this acquisition, BTS will now have the capability to offer improved real-time solutions to pressing equity, safety, and climate challenges. The company's new end-to-end services will also help reduce operating costs and enhance the overall customer experience for riders.
Currently, BTS operates bike share systems in major cities such as Los Angeles, Philadelphia, and Las Vegas. It also provides full-service customer support for an additional 24 cities across the United States. After the acquisition is finalized in October, BTS will become the largest docked bike share provider in the country by number of communities served.
The acquisition includes ten BCycle-owned bike share systems in various communities across the U.S., including Santa Barbara, Santa Cruz, Madison, and Boulder. Additionally, BTS will take on bikes, docking stations, and software support for 15 other communities such as Indianapolis, Salt Lake City, Cincinnati, and Milwaukee.
