Our proposal aims to create the first cross-border community bike rental system in Europe. A new public transport service will be established on the Slovak-Hungarian border, which will contribute to a better connection between the two border towns. Within the framework of the tender, bicycle rental stations will be established in several locations in both towns, where electric bicycles can be rented as well as conventional ones. As a result of the joint development of the system, anyone can rent a bicycle at any docking station and they can return the bicycle to any station as well. The stations will be located near all major urban functions (offices, transport) in both municipalities.
