World Bicycle Day: For nearly two decades, JCDecaux has committed to promoting eco-friendly mobility
As an effective complement to public transport systems, self-service bikes can help to reduce the effects of climate change and improve the quality of life in cities. Since the early 2000s, JCDecaux has worked to bring self-service bikes to as many people as possible. Today, the Group operates more than 25,000 bikes in 10 countries and 73 cities, with a particularly well-developed network in
As a trusted partner of local authorities in championing intermodal travel, JCDecaux leverages its expertise and powers of innovation to help cities and citizens meet the challenges of mobility. Over 753 million journeys have been made since 2003 using self-service bikes operated by JCDecaux.
This success is based on several factors, which highlight the strength of JCDecaux’s “eco-friendly mobility” model:
- JCDecaux’s ability to develop solutions in partnership with cities, as part of public contracts;
- an offering of traditional and/or electrically assisted bikes which are innovative, robust and proven in public spaces;
- an extensive range of services (self-service bikes, long-term rental, adapted bikes, parking solutions, etc.);
- an omnichannel customer experience which allows each user to manage their use of self-service bikes from their smartphone;
- fully in-house expertise to deliver continuous scalability of our systems and full control of the value chain from application to the choice of features such as mud guards;
- self-service bike-share services using a station system and individual bike stands to provide a reliable and optimised user experience;
- an expert and responsible approach to operations related to bike services (cleaning using rainwater, recycling, zero-emission vehicle fleets);
- excellence in regulation and maintenance operations, in terms of user safety and through the use of data to match demand to the availability of bikes throughout the day.
By listening to cities and citizens, JCDecaux continues to reimagine the future of shared bikes to enhance users’ experience and facilitate their daily travel. This includes the following initiatives: inclusive and cargo bikes, autonomous, solar-powered stations, Mobility as a Service (MaaS – supplying all available mobility services for a region within a single platform as illustrated in
