Reckoned to be the country’s first Public Bicycle Sharing (PBS) system when it was launched in Mysuru in June 2017, the Trin Trin project is undergoing a major overhaul that includes replacement of the existing conventional bicycles with upgraded pedal-assist bicycles and shifting from the beam style docking stations to dockless hubs.
Not only will be the number of bicycles increased from the existing 450 to 1,000, but the 50 docking stations will pave the way for 100 dockless hubs, thereby expanding the PBS system and making the bicycles available in many hitherto unserved areas of the city.
A project of the State government’s Directorate of Urban Land Transport (DULT), the PBS is being implemented by Mysuru City Corporation (MCC), which is the nodal agency.
