Since the beginning of this summer, 22 new BuBi collection points have come into operation, while the system was expanded with 638 docking stations and 50 bikes. All the newly established 22 collection points have terminals where occasional users can register and buy tickets for the service.
As the naming sponsor for the system, Hungarian oil and gas company MOL supports the operation of the system with an annual HUF 122 mln.
The bike sharing system can only be used after registering. Users pay a deposit of roughly HUF 20,000 to register, and after that they can borrow the bikes. The first half hour of bike use is free, and after that, users will be charged a small fee.
Producing journalism that is worthy of the name is a costly business. For over 30 years, the publishers, editors and reporters of the Budapest Business Journal have striven to bring you business news that works, information that you can trust, that is factual, accurate and presented without fear or favor.Newspaper organizations across the globe have struggled to find a business model that allows them to continue to excel, without compromising their ability to perform. Most recently, some have experimented with the idea of involving their most important stakeholders, their readers.
We would like to offer that same opportunity to our readers. We would like to invite you to help us deliver the quality business journalism you require. Hit our Support the BBJ button and you can choose the how much and how often you send us your contributions.
