Bixi

Bixi is a public bike-sharing system that originated in Montreal, Canada, in 2009. It allows users to rent bicycles for short periods, promoting eco-friendly transportation and reducing urban congestion. Riders can pick up and drop off bikes at various stations throughout the city, usually for a nominal fee. Bixi operates on a membership basis as well as offering single rides, making it accessible for both locals and tourists. The program encourages cycling as a sustainable and healthy mode of transport while providing a convenient alternative to cars and public transit.
