• Abstract:
  A total of 3,378 bike-share stations operate in 104 U.S cities. Of the 3,378 bike-share stations, 77.0 percent (2,600) connect to another scheduled public transportation mode within 1 block. These connections extend the transportation network by offering a means for reaching places with scheduled public transportation (e.g., heavy rail stations and local bus stops) and a means for reaching destinations not served by scheduled public transportation. Transit bus is the most typical connection, with 74.9 percent (2531) of bike-share stations located a block or less from a transit bus stop. Bike-share systems enhance modal choice and extend the existing transportation system by providing access to destinations off existing public transportation routes.
