???? Promoting intermodality in Paris
In July, Smovengo launched a new electric bike service in Paris called?WEELO. The premise is simple: to give tourists and business commuters (arriving from cities like Lyon and Marseille) access to an electric bike for the day. It's ideal for tourists that want to explore the city, or for professionals that need reliable, sustainable transport to get from meeting to meeting. Bookings can be made several days in advance, which guarantees you a bike on the day.
OV-fiets' station-to-bike system success is world-renowned, but it is yet to be successfully replicated in France. WEELO has a physical shop just outside Gare de Lyon train station, and opens before the first train arrives in Paris, and closes after the last departure. Groups of up to 30 people can hire bikes for the day, for just €15. Though the price may seem high, two trips on a free-floating bike in Paris, or one taxi, will certainly cost you more.
