Brighton & Hove’s cycle hire scheme is set to return with the introduction of new Beryl BTN Bikes on March 31. The first phase of the scheme will see approximately 75 e-bikes available from 19 hubs located along the seafront and the connecting corridors to Brighton and Hove stations. The number of e-bikes will increase to 125 during this first phase, with more bikes and hubs to be added in the coming months.
The scheme’s next phases will include the rollout of the rest of the fleet, which consists of 468 e-bikes and 312 pedal-only bikes, resulting in a total fleet of 780 bikes, nearly 200 more than the previous scheme. The city council will also consult on 15 new hubs to extend the scheme’s coverage city-wide over the next few months.
