RESIDENT AND CLIENT SERVICES
Denver B-cycle Partnership
Residents within Denver Housing Authority’s Mariposa Community struggled with consistently reliable and affordable transportation options. Through a partnership with Denver B-cycle (the first large-scale municipal bike sharing system in the United States), Mariposa residents were provided with free bicycle memberships, helmets, and education on biking safety. Because of this partnership, 110 residents found an economical and convenient solution to their transportation barrier. Access to Denver B-cycle has increased resident mobility, provided access to a greater variety of healthy food options, and reduced expenditures for transportation.
