Beryl Bikes are heading back to Kinson from February next year following the reintroduction of the service to Bearwood earlier this year.
There’ll be five Beryl Bays across Kinson with bikes and scooters – in Pinewood Avenue, East Howe Lane, Pelham Sports Centre, Kinson Library and Anchor Road.
Beryl CEO and co-founder Phil Ellis, said: “We are constantly reviewing our schemes and processes to ensure they are being delivered as effectively as possible.
“I am delighted that we are now able to reintroduce our scheme to the Kinson area and I hope this will continue to inspire even more people to take up sustainable travel options.
“By widening the reach of our scheme, we can continue to help reduce traffic congestion and carbon emissions while improving public health and the region’s air quality.”
Councillor Mike Greene, BCP Council’s Cabinet Member for Sustainability and Transport adds: “It is great news that our micromobility hire partner Beryl is re-introducing their service to Kinson, particularly now that the hire scheme area has been expanded to include neighbouring Wimborne and Ferndown.
“I have had representation from the local ward councillors asking for this service to be resumed, so it was great to hear that our requests have brought a good result.”
The bikes and e-scooters were previously withdrawn from the Kinson area in early 2021 after a review found that they were no longer a commercially viable part of the scheme at that time.
The jade-green bikes and scooters will be brought back to the area on 20 February 2023.
