Public Bike Share Program To Expand Season For Cambridge Stations
BOSTON (CBS) --- The Hubway, the Boston area's public bike share program, will expand their season throughout winter at almost all Cambridge-based stations.
For two and a half years, Hubway has operated on a seasonal basis, closing in the winter.
"We are pleased at the opportunity to pilot Hubway service year-round," said Cambridge City Manager Richard C. Rossi. "We're committed to supporting sustainable transportation options, and we are excited to continue the program this winter season. We do ask for everyone to use care when riding under winter conditions and also request your patience and understanding as we work with whatever nature brings us in terms of weather."
Almost all stations in Cambridge will remain operational throughout the winter, though the station at Lafayette Square/Main Street will be removed from the street for the season. The Lechmere station will be moved to the sidewalk just east of Lechmere Station.
A Hubway field team will work to make sure snow removal is done when needed.
Stations in Boston, Brookline, and Somerville shut down Monday.
Most other stations will remain open through Wednesday, November 27th.
