In what has slowly become expected news both for the very novelty of the initiative and for the enormous social benefit that could bring, the SECPLAC, Raimondi Agility confirmed the municipality’s intention to close a contract with the Mobike Company, same company that initiated the program of public bicycles in the communes of La Reina and Las Condos. In addition, they equip the reflective safety accessories.
On this point, the architect affirmed, “Our goal within 2018 is, within the consolidation of this cycle path network, just the arrival of public bicycles. We start in this stage with solid and institutional bicycles and what we have left for next semester is to have a public service for Machala and Rancagua. ”
On the progress of this idea, the urbanism confessed that. “We have been exploring this idea for a long time but the experiences in Chile did not convince us to incorporate it in Rancagua but we patiently wait for the advance of new technologies for November 2017 to meet with representatives of the Mobike system. In addition, we wear the safety vest and working to move forward and see how to implement as soon as possible in the conurbation. We have everything we need, there are the desire and the vandalism issues that have been seen in Santiago will be seen in quite minor scales and we can do a joint work with social organizations; we hope that Mobike dares to leave Santiago and of course we would be proud to be the first commune and region nationwide”.
