Sioux City will become the first community in Iowa to offer a bicycle-sharing service operated by San Mateo, California, based LimeBike.
On Monday, the City Council approved an agreement with LimeBike, which operates in more than 40 communities across the nation. Under the agreement, LimeBike will park some 250 bikes on downtown city sidewalk and right-of-way locations from which users can rent them.
The bicycles will be free-standing and self-locking, requiring no docking station and no investment of taxpayer money by the city.
