Bradford e-bike share scheme
The new e-bike share scheme will feature a fleet of electric bicycles, strategically located at key points throughout the district.

Parking locations will be installed across the district to ensure the scheme is as accessible as possible to all. The Bradford Beryl Bike scheme will offer high quality e-bikes to residents, commuters and visitors.
