Is bike sharing coming to Cairo? The UN Human Settlement Programme signed an agreement with the Cairo governorate to introduce a bike-sharing scheme in the nation’s capital, Egypt Independent reports. The Drosos Foundation is providing USD 1.5 mn in financing for the project. The project, named Bicicletta, will introduce 300 bicycles and create several “bike-sharing stations” across the downtown Cairo. Drosos says UN Habitat is also building “bike lanes in the catchment area of Cairo University. Additionally, the partner will select and enable a local social enterprise to manage and operate the bike-sharing model, ensuring high quality services.”
