Bike Sharing Program Proposed in Seattle

Today, car sharing programs may be losing their purpose since many are shifting towards lower consuming vehicles like bicycles. And now as far as the city of Seattle is concerned, it looks like they are exploring of further helping the consumer save on finances as they study the possibility of bike sharing.
The bike alone is an eco-friendly option since they normally run on pedal power or electricity. So the next issue that may have to be addressed is that of capacity that bikes can take and the energy a person would have to use these said bikes.
Bike sharing is an eco-friendly option for short trips. The idea is to have rental stations throughout the city so people can check out a bike in one neighborhood and return it in another.
