LimeBike Announces More Bikes, More Jobs, New Office in Dallas
They say everything's bigger in Texas. Who are we to buck tradition?
Today, LimeBike has officially announced our Dallas-area expansion, responding to the tremendous support we’ve received from residents throughout the city. Over the coming days, not only will our service officially extend north into Plano, but more than 1,000 new 3G-GPS enabled bikes will be added to our Dallas fleet as well. This puts us on track to reach 5,000 bikes by the end of the year!
To put that in some perspective, consider just a few of the milestones our Dallas community has already passed since August:
- More than 82,000 trips taken
- More than 2.3 M calories burned
- More than 2,100 gallons of gas saved
- More than 4,000 trees protected
With a surge of new bikes strategically positioned throughout the city, these numbers will only continue to climb, reinforcing Dallas’ commitment to healthier, more sustainable transportation alternatives.
Of course, a greater presence doesn’t just mean more rides; it also means an increased focus on local service. At 96%, our 24-hour customer support satisfaction rate surpasses the national average. It’s one of the reasons LimeBike has earned a 78% retention rate among our Dallas riders, and we intend to keep it that way!
To that end, we’re thrilled to announce the opening of our very first local office in The Big D. The decision was necessary in order to accommodate a locally-hired field ops team that doubled in size last month, and will continue to grow 20% week-over-week through December 31st.
To celebrate this exciting growth, and to say thank you for your continued support, LimeBike is proud to offer our Dallas community members 5 free rides through the end of November using the code THANKSDALLAS. We're looking forward to many more great miles together to close out the year, and a big Texas-sized start to 2018!
