The number of stations will increase to 4
Speaking at the opening ceremony, Mayor Halil Arda said that he was happy to fill a great deficiency in Gaziemir. Giving the good news that the number of stations in the district will increase in the near future, Mayor Halil Arda said, “As a bicycle lover who spends weekends on bicycles, I am happy to bring BISIM to Gaziemir. This is a beginning. BISIM will start to serve with two stations in Gaziemir. Two stations may not seem enough, we will ask IZULAŞ General Manager Arda Şekercioğlu to increase this number quickly. Two stations will be built in Abdullah Arda Square and Emlak Bankası Residences. But I see it as a shortcoming that a station was not considered, especially in the Sarnıç Region, which has the only bicycle path in our district. If we can add two stations between Sarnıç İzban Station and Sarnıç center, we will enable our citizens living in this region to reach İZBAN by bicycle. Izmir Metropolitan Municipality Mayor Tunç SoyerI would like to thank ' and the municipal employees very much," he said.
New bicycle routes will be built in Gaziemir
Explaining that the contactless rental system was used for the first time in Gaziemir stations with the QR code implemented at BİSİM stations, Mayor Arda also shared the information that new bicycle paths will be added to the district.
Chairman Arda said: “QR code technology is used for the first time here in Gaziemir. The system will work with QR code. The necessary transactions will be made contactless, without a BİSİM card, with a credit card and the bike will be unlocked. We brought BİSİM, but we have a major deficiency in bicycle paths. Our Izmir Metropolitan Municipality is working on bringing new bicycle paths to Gaziemir. I wish the zoning plans had been made in the past years with bicycle paths in mind. Still, we are not considered to be late. "
Stating that people live a very fast life with the developing technology and this situation is not suitable for human nature, President Arda said, “We need to put the bicycle into our lives. We have to slow down our lives a little. We live with technology at great speed. Our body is not suitable for this speed. This speed in technology is reflected in our lives in such a way that we are experiencing difficulties. Bicycle actually comes into our lives as a means of transportation that will slow down our lives and keep us healthy by doing sports. I hope BISIM will be auspicious for Gaziemir ”.
After the opening ceremony held at the BİSİM Station on the Sevgi Yolu, Mayor Halil Arda rode with the participants to the city hall.
