B-cycle surpasses 50,000 trips in four months, plans Austin expansion

B-cycle, Austin's bicycle sharing service, has surpassed 50,000 trips four months after the kiosks opened to bikers downtown.

The system has doubled projected first-year usage through this point and will expand to meet demand, according to a release sent out by Austin B-cycle. The nonprofit plans to add four locations and expand three due to high usage.

New locations include a second Convention Center and Rainey District station, South Lamar Boulevard near Barton Springs Road, and restaurant row on Barton Springs Road. Expansion of current stations will occur at Fourth Street and Congress Avenue, South Congress Avenue and Academy, and the Pfluger Bridge at 2nd Street. Expansions are expected to begin in early June, according to the release.
