Cherwell District Council, GB Dr. Bike initiative gets residents back on their bicycles
Cherwell District Council, GB Dr. Bike Initiative
The council works with Bicester Green to provide free bicycle repairs to city residents. Dr. Bike started as a one-year pilot working out of a mobile location. Bicester Green moved repairs to their facility by the end of the first year due to Dr. Bike's popularity. Cherwell District Council extended the initiative into a second year as part of its Healthy Bicester program.
