The Street Trust aims to remove (offset) barriers to entry for e-bike ownership, contributing to the health and wellbeing of participants by using an energy-efficient, non-polluting mode of transportation that maximizes air quality benefits.
Summary Line 2
This pilot program provides e-bikes to individuals in Hillsboro, OR who want to start riding, but don't have the financial means or previous experience to purchase one themselves.
Summary Line 3
If you are a program participant, this app can help you log your trips.
Short Textual Description
TST would like to pilot the demand-shift potential for e-bike ownership in the Portland area by hosting a year-long "ride to own" program where participants receive a free e-bike, gear, accessories, and bike education in exchange for one year of qualitative and quantitative trip data sharing. To gather the data needed, this pilot requires an automated trip tracking solution for understanding travel behavior. The pilot will allow TST to understand variations in travel across days of the week and months of the year without complex, time-consuming surveys.
Why We Collect
The data collected during the program will be used to understand how e-bikes are used, including when and how often as well as distance traveled. TST can use this information to understand how people are using e-bikes, what their constraints are, and will help policymakers and decisionmakers in Oregon understand how to better provide bike infrastructure to the area. This comprehensive information will aid TST in its mission to help build a complete, safe, low-carbon, multimodal transportation system that contributes to equity in access, opportunity, health, and prosperity for people and communities across the Portland Metro Region and beyond.
