Transit Fare to Bike Share, Chicago, Illinois, 2016

The Chicago Transit Authority received a $400,000 grant from the Federal Transit Administration to modify the existing Ventra App which will allow users to more easily access bike share bikes in Chicago. The new features will allow users to more easily locate Divvy bike share stations, view bike and dock availability and seamlessly pay for Divvy bike rentals through the app using Ventra transit value. For more information please see the press release from Illinois Congressman Dan Lipinski.
