Massive bike racks appearance in Yaremche

In March and April 2009 here was established more than 200 URBO bicycle racks in the mountain resort town of Yaremche. Bike parkings appeared virtually everywhere - near shops, restaurants, museums, markets, schools, churches. Local cyclists and visitors are verified now that U-rack is really very practical, convenient and safe one!

Bike stands are made by URBO drawings, but produced at a local factory. They are installed as an action of non-profit project called BikeLand, which is funded by the European Union. Racks are painted in green - the corporate color of the project.

Стоянка для велосипеда

This article to be translated into English. Для багатьох сучасних міських мешканців велосипед - щоденний вид транспорту. Вони їздять на велосипеді на роботу, в магазин, на зустрічі з друзями. Кількість таких людей в українських містах зростає з року в рік. Зрозуміло, що для bicycle commuters, як називають цих людей в англомовних країнах, велостоянки - це елемент зручності. А що дасть велосипедна стоянка власникам закладу - магазина, кафе, офісного центру, супермаркета, ринку?
