(3) Agenda
A. Teleconference with Katie Sargeant. Gotcha Bikes about Crimson Cruiser
system and possibilities for system urban expansion
Presentation from Gotcha on how the OU bikeshare program could be expanded to the
City of Norman
Turnkey operation – bikes, operations, maintenance (not included are stations, but hubs
or approved bike racks with U lock are different – OU uses their own racks). Cost is
$110/bike/month
Contract covers ‘worn out’ bicycles for replacement (anticipated 10 bike frame, parts
changed over time as part of maintenance).
Distribution of bikes to locations – Buchannan’s is redistributing bikes (per GPS, app that
shows where they might cluster); however there are options to provide incentives (e.g.
$2 discount if bike is returned to a hub that doesn’t have bicycles).
Don’t have to have a smartphone to rent a bike (do have to have a credit card though)
Recommended to have a smooth system (where any bike could be rented to go to
campus or other location, rather than two separate systems or zones)
Stations or hubs could be sponsored by a business
100 bikes --$132,000 / year (does not include stations)
B. Confirm timeline on Bike Skills Park design process for spring 2018 engagement
& BAC responsibilities
(goal timeline)
Target to go to CC for approval Feb 27th; March & April for public meetings; Design in
May; construction in the summer
C. Impact of updated Norman Comprehensive Plan on Bike Master Plan and the
Comprehensive Transportation Plan (Angelo)
Review of land use changes to more ‘urban’ and corresponding impacts on the CTP.
Bike lanes and multiuse paths will be recommended for urban corridors.
