A new bike rental program could be coming to the municipality.
A report coming to Chatham-Kent council tonight will highlight the possible benefits of an independent operator starting up a bike rental program, aimed mostly at tourists to the municipality.
Demon Electric/RYDE, a Canadian company based out of Richmond Hill, Ontario has come forward with interest in creating a tourism-focused bike rental program in Chatham-Kent. The report includes details about what a proposed pilot bike rental program will feature.
The pilot project is expected to be in place by this summer.
