The client and the context
The Municipality of Villabate, located in the province of Palermo, Italy, is actively engaged in promoting sustainable urban mobility solutions. With a strong focus on energy efficiency and city upgrading, the city government has decided to adopt an innovative eco-friendly transportation solution: the bike-sharing system developed by tmr.
The goal
In 2022, the goal of the City of Villabate was to offer its citizens a sustainable mobility alternative and promote a green lifestyle within the community. Through tmr‘s bike sharing, based on the youMove® platform, the municipality is able to provide an advanced, efficient and interconnected urban mobility service.
The tmr solution
tmr ‘s bike sharing solution provides the City of Villabate with a comprehensive system for managing shared bicycles. Through the innovative youMove® software, the municipality can monitor and control the location of bicycles in real time, ensuring optimal resource management and user safety.
In the city of Villabate, 2 bike share stations have been installed, each equipped with an automatic structure with a little house that opens by framing the QRCode. These stations are landmarks for citizens who wish to rent a bicycle for their commute. Inside the stations, there are fat bikes, sturdy bicycles that are also suitable for tackling rough terrain.
The ease of use of the bike sharing system is a strength of tmr‘s solution. Citizens of Villabate can simply open thefree youMove® app available in the Apple Store and Google Play Store, frame the QRCode on the automatic station box, and access a bicycle. Once use is over, the bicycle can be returned to any bike share station in the network.
