Massive bike racks appearance in Yaremche
20/05/2009
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.
Massive “field tests” of the racks proved that their quality meet the requirements of convenience, security and aesthetics. The only problem fixed is that local population, which is not familiarized with this model did not understood immediately how to use it. However, bike tourists quickly demonstrate example how to lock bicycles to the new green racks.BikeLand Project is also satisfied with the rack model provided by TM URBO and plans to install the same parkings in other towns of Prykarpattia.
