City leaders began accepting bids for Boston's proposed citywide bike share program today, which is schedule to begin in the spring of next year.The program will place 150 or so kiosks around the city with bikes locked to them, and program participants will be able to swipe a credit card and pick up a bike. The kiosks will be located around busy areas such MBTA stations, colleges, and hospitals.
The fee for the bikes will range between $2 and $5 an hour, city officials said.
Biking advocates are excited about the program because it gives commuters flexibility in using bikes to get around the city.
