摘要：	Bikesharing, the short-term rental of a shared fleet of bicycles, is one strategy to improve the environment, air quality, and community health. This study, sponsored by the California Department of Transportation, explores the feasibility of an employee bikesharing program and includes a literature review on bikesharing projects, a description of the Caltrans District 4 employee bikesharing pilot, and user analyses (surveys and usage). Bikesharing consists of the short-term rental of shared bicycles located in a common site. The Caltrans District 4 bikesharing pilot included eight bicycles placed in lockers in the office garage. Caltrans District 4 employees interested in participating in the program completed a pre-program questionnaire and attended a training session. A total of sixty-two employees joined the bikesharing program between the start of the pilot in March 2010 and its end in November 2010. Bicycle usage was tracked through cards monitoring the number of bicycles and rental period of bicycles borrowed within a day. In November 2010, participants responded to a postprogram questionnaire that explored participants changes in travel behavior and provided a forum for commentary about the program. The program aimed at providing employees with alternate transportation to increase the number of healthy, sustainable travel options.
