eNews – Boston’s CargoB Launches USA’s First eCargo Bike Share
October 30, 2024 - In mid-May, Boston’s CargoB was officially launched as the USA’s first on- demand e-cargo bike share operation, with hubs in three neighbourhoods opened around the city.
Success came early — only a short month later, founders Dorothy Fennell and Zack DeClerck said the response has far exceeded expectations.
“CargoB’s first 300 riders have moved their dogs, lawn mowers, BBQ grills, teenagers, air conditioners, etc…,” wrote Fennell on LinkedIn.
Boston is a city that’s embracing cycling. Mayor Michelle Wu is an avid cyclist, and last September, Wu and the Boston Transportation Department announced the launch of Boston Delivers, an e-cargo bike delivery pilot program.
According to Fennell, more neighbourhoods are in the works and CargoB will be at community events all summer long.
