VéloPartage, the cantonal free-access bicycle network

From 18 August 2020, the Vélopartage network, operated by the company Donkey Republic in partnership with Genèveroule, will be offering self-service bicycles 24 hours a day, 7 days a week in 178 stations throughout the canton.

With more than 15 years of experience in the management of a network of loan and self-access bicycles, the association Genèveroule is very happy to be part of VéloPartage. Such a network is an important lever to promote the use of bicycles while creating jobs for socio-professional integration. Within VéloPartage, Genèveroule carries out the monitoring and maintenance of bicycles, the balancing of stations and the replacement of batteries for electric bicycles.
