Leaders of the province and Hue city, together with representatives of units cutting ribbon to launch the project
This project is implemented basing on the content of a MOU between Hue City People's Committee with German Agency for Development Cooperation (GIZ) and VIETSOFTPRO Joint Stock Company (VPS).
The public bicycle-sharing system in Hue is born with environmentally friendly criteria; suitable for short travel distances. It is also a new urban transport solution that help residents and visitors switch to a more sustainable mode of transport.
To use this service, residents and visitors download the app and scan the QR Code to unlock the bicycles. Then, they can pick up and drop off the bicycles at any stations without having to return the bike to the base station.
