The contract for Munich’s current bike sharing system, MVG-rad, operated by nextbike, expires in 2025.
In partnership with the Munich Transport Association (MVV), the city wants to expand the service to allow citizens to cycle across the region, beyond the existing boundaries of the current scheme.
This new system will open for tender in 2024, and is expected to be made up of 5,200 bikes (2,000 electric) & 675+ stations.
