Hoboken and Jersey City officials coalesced at the Mile Square City’s Pier A Park this afternoon to finally kickoff their Citi Bike expansion that was years in the making.
“There was a little bit of a dissonance between the bike shares that we had: Jersey City and New York City had Citi Bike, which fit together, we had another provider that was not Citi Bike. We’d spoken, once I got elected, about how we could make things easier for our residents,” Hoboken Mayor Ravi Bhalla said at the press conference.
“The residents in Jersey City, the residents in Hoboken, and really just kind of exercised some common sense. When you’re living in Hoboken and working in Jersey City, or living in Hoboken and working in Manhattan, we want to try and make it as easy as possible.”
