Deployed on February 8, 2018, this SMART station has accumulated over 550 rides in just over a year! What’s a SMART station? Smart Stations are bike stations without the kiosk. The hardware and solar panel are all housed within the map frame at the end of the station. With no credit card reader, all transactions take place through our CycleFinder app or with a member key.

The containers, designed by Tucson Architect Paul Weiner, are architecturally compelling and modern in Nature.
