Mobis Transportation/Bikestation will hold the grand opening of the Bikestation Hillsboro bike transit center in Hillsboro, OR.
The new Bikestation facility offers a range of amenities including electronically secure indoor bike parking, showers, restrooms, lockers, a bicycle self-repair stand with tools, and transit information. Bikestation is designed to address the needs of current cyclists and people who'd like to bicycle but shy away due to concerns about theft and convenience. The transit center operates on a low-cost membership model and members can use not only the Hillsboro facility, but any Bikestation located across the country.
The Bikestation grand opening will coincide with the Railvolution 2010 Conference in Portland, in which visionaries, professionals and advocacy representatives address how urban planning, land use and transit can improve communities and provide greater livability.
