Story Bikes in Somers Town
PublicDownloadable Content
open in viewerThe People’s Museum in Somers Town seeks to create a Story Bike service that would use a passenger cargo bicycle to provide transportation to residents in the area with limited mobility and offer historic guided tours to promote the museum mission. We surveyed the public and determined there is likely sufficient demand for such services. Through background research and interviews, we identified logistical and operational concerns associated with implementation of Story Bikes. We recommend the museum establish a pilot program that employs young people, purchase a Triobike Taxi, basic maintenance tools, and insurance through Unity Insurance. We also recommend developing an online booking system and using the Phoenix Place storage facility operated by Camden Council.
