What it reported doing in 2024
Peacehealth rides bike share: peacehealth rides is eugene and springfield's community bikeshare system, operated in partnership with the city of eugene, university of Oregon, and lane transit district. Sponsored by peacehealth, this self-service network provides publicly available bikes that can be rented through the peacehealth rides app. The program keeps transportation dollars local - bikes and equipment are publicly owned, and cascadia mobility manages all aspects of operations and marketing.in 2024, peacehealth rides continued to serve as a key transportation option, supporting thousands of riders and reinforcing bike share as a reliable and convenient transportation choice.valet & event bike parking services: providing secure and convenient bike parking at major events encourages more people to ride. By working with event organizers, cascadia mobility offers free and staffed valet bike parking services at concerts, festivals, and community gatherings, ensuring attendees have a safe place to leave their bikes. Cascadia mobility provided front-door bike parking at 46 events, parking over 3,600 bikes in 2024. This program continues to make biking (and scootering!) the most fun and convenient way to attend community events! This success was made possible by 80 dedicated volunteers, who helped ensure a seamless experience for riders at some of the area's biggest events, including the u.s. Olympic trials, eugene marathon, and cuthbert concert series. As event organizers continue prioritizing bike-friendly infrastructure, these services play a key role in making riding your bike the easiest option.access plan, free bike share membership program: cascadia mobility believes everyone should have access to sustainable, affordable transportation. Funded by the Oregon health authority (oha), the peacehealth rides access plan provides free bike share memberships through local partners that include food for lane county, homes for good, and plaza de nuestra comunidad.in 2024, the program helped over 120 riders reach work, school, and essential services. Ongoing partnerships and outreach will ensure even more community members can benefit in 2025.uo bike share ambassador program: in partnership with uo transportation services and the uo outdoor program (uoop), this initiative gives uo students the opportunity to earn a free bike share membership by promoting active transportation on campus. Ambassadors educate peers about bike share, support community events, and advocate for safer streets, helping to grow the active transportation culture at the university and spread it community-wide.community engagement: cascadia mobility connects directly with the community to expand bike access, educate new riders, and promote active transportation. Through events, partnerships, and hands-on engagement, we helped more people integrate biking into their daily lives. A growing presence in the community: in 2024, we participated in 85 events, a 30% increase from the previous year, engaging with over 7,100 people. These efforts introduced more riders to bike share and active transportation, reinforcing biking as a healthy, normal, everyday transportation choice. Bringing more bike share to more people: we organized 28 events, from the springfield bike share expansion to group rides with a variety of partners, we are showcasing the value of community and active transportation.
