*PEAHAWAR - The Khyber Pakhtunkhwa government’s Peshawar’s Bus Rapid Transit will have the first ever unique system for cyclists.*

*It will include a dedicated track for cyclists.*

The construction of the track has already started.

Trans-Peshawar manager communication Noman Manzoor for the company that is working on the project said that this is the first time this is being offered in Pakistan. The track will pass along the entire 28kms of the BRT corridor.

Initially, 360 step-through frame bicycles will be bought and offered for people to take on rent. The step-through frame bicycles will be more convenient for women.

Travelers will be able use their ‘Zu Fare Card’, which will be issued by the Trans-Peshawar Company, to rent the bicycles. The card can also be used to travel on BRT buses. Users will be able to charge as well as check the status of the card through a mobile application and website.

To ensure the safety of riders, the cycles will be equipped with LED lights and reflectors.

Users will be able to take a bicycle from one station and leave it at another. The authorities will use trucks to pick the cycles and redistribute them at stations where they are needed.

Make sure these bikes have trackers in them because people like to steal them even in western countries lol
Most bike sharing companies have trackers installed in their bikes. They are unlocked by using a phone app (you've to turn on your location and Bluetooth). They autolock when your journey is complete or else you're charged. In Malaysia and Singapore, we have Obike and others.
