Waiblingen extends cargo bike project despite increasing costs!

In Waiblingen, the cargo bike sharing project is extended by a whopping three years, and this is a good news for all environmentally conscious citizens! The use of cargo bikes is on the rise, as they offer a perfect, sustainable alternative to the car. Whether in the core city or in the surrounding towns - the opportunity to borrow a cargo bike remains and will continue to benefit.

But here the catch comes: the city will have to dig deeper into its pocket in the future! In the past, the provision of the "Lara" (cargo bike sharing) only cost 4500 euros per year. Now that the country's funding is used up, the annual cost increase is 9,000 euros. This could hardly be noticed in the Waiblingen household, which is filled with over 60 million euros for personnel expenses alone, but the CDU city councils are anything but enthusiastic. You cannot support the increase and contain the vote.

Climate committee is behind the project

To the delight of the supporters, however, the climate committee voted in a large majority for the sharing system. The will to promote sustainable mobility and offer environmentally friendly alternatives brings a breath of fresh air to the city's concerns. Despite the critical question of cost, the cargo bike sharing remains an important step towards a greener future.
