Philly Gets Rolling Again: Indego Reintroduces Single Ride Pass
Great news for Philadelphians and visitors alike! The City’s popular bikeshare program, Indego, has just brought back the highly requested Single Ride Pass. This means you can now enjoy the convenience of exploring the city on two wheels without committing to a longer-term membership.
Here’s what you need to know:
- Perfect for Short Trips: The Single Ride Pass is ideal for one-way commutes, errands, or simply enjoying a scenic ride around town. It costs $4.50 for 30 minutes on a classic bike.
- E-bike Power: Prefer the extra boost of an electric bike (e-bike)? You can choose an e-bike for your Single Ride, but there’s an additional fee of 30 cents per minute.
- Plan Your Ride: The 30-minute clock starts ticking as soon as you unlock the bike. Make sure to plan your route efficiently to avoid incurring overage charges.
- Growing System: Indego is committed to making cycling accessible to everyone. Throughout 2024, they’re adding hundreds of new docking stations and bikes to the system, with a focus on underserved areas.
Why is this a big deal?
The Single Ride Pass makes Indego even more attractive for casual riders and tourists. It also caters to existing pass holders who might need a quick one-way trip without switching to another mode of transportation.
The increasing popularity of e-bikes is another interesting takeaway. With more people opting for electric power, the additional fee on Single Rides helps offset the higher maintenance costs of e-bikes.
