Abstract

Bicycle-sharing systems have experienced strong growth in the last two decades as part of a global trend that started in the 1990s and accelerated after 2005. Early bicycle-sharing systems were provided primarily as a public service by cities. Today, major international bicycle-sharing companies are emerging and seeking to expand their operations to new cities.
