A proposal to establish a public bike sharing scheme in Leeds is set to be discussed by senior councillors next week

Outlined as part of a report to Leeds City Council’s executive board, members will have an opportunity to assess and approve the scheme which could be introduced as early as the spring of this year.

The scheme will initially run for 12 months in the city centre and surrounding areas. If successful, the aim is to expand the scheme further into the suburbs and towns as quickly as possible.
