Heartland Bike Share
Bike sharing is particularly helpful for people who need to connect the first and last miles of their commutes from home to a bus station and to work. Biking is also a quick and healthy way to travel to meetings or appointments throughout the day, and a great way to get some exercise on the city’s trails. Heartland Bike Share’s fleet is fully electric, which gives riders an extra boost as they pedal, helping them arrive at their destination sooner and sweat-free!
Omaha’s bike share system, Heartland Bike Share, features more than 400 bikes and 80 stations throughout the city, including several around the 42nd & Dewey campus.
How to Use Heartland Bike Share
- To find a station close to you, use the BCycle app or go to the website live map. Below is a map of stations closest to the med center.
