Share Cycle Business

Just that way. Move on the other side. A convenient bicycle that you can ride right away will widen your range of action.
The service called "share cycle" rents an electric assist bicycle at ports in various parts of the city, and returns can be made at any port as long as it is a port for each service!

We devised "Yokohama-shi share cycle business operation policy"!

We release "Yokohama-shi share cycle business operation policy" which summarized future image or business purpose of share cycle of Motoichi.

[First in Japan] Visualize the movement data of the share cycle in WebGIS and make it public!

 As a result of the efforts of the Yokohama Central Community Cycle Project and the Yokohama City Wide Area Share Cycle Project Social Experiment conducted in Motoichi, a visualization of the movement data of the share cycle will be released to the public in a state that anyone can view it on WebGIS. I will.
 As a result, we can expect the effects of facilitating internal decision-making by private companies considering the establishment of ports, predicting future in economic activities, and improving the accuracy of marketing activities.
 This is the first initiative for local governments nationwide to disclose the share cycle transfer data on WebGIS.
