Divvy now available throughout all of Chicago, CDOT announces

Chicago's Divvy bike share program has announced a major expansion, both in terms of service area and fleet size.

The system is set to add 3,000 bikes and 253 new stations, primarily targeting underserved neighborhoods.

The Chicago Department of Transportation stated that the new additions will make the Windy City the largest bike share service area in North America.

"As we work to make Chicago the best big city for biking in the country, we are not only bringing Divvy service to every ward in Chicago, but are continuing to invest in the system, with more bikes and new stations to make bikeshare more convenient and accessible," said CDOT Commissioner Gia Biagi.

The expansion announcement comes at the start of May, which is National Bike Month.
