One of the #CargobikeSharingBETA electric bikes was used yesterday to make a 5.7km journey over 3 hours, transporting 2 children 3 bags to 3 destinations, for €11. The user noted that "it would be extremely difficult to manage this journey in a car due to timing and parking."

A great suggestion by one of the @BleeperActive staff, this is a prototype 'taxi plate' sign for the top of the #CargobikeSharingBETA hangar - to explore differentiating it from regular @BikeBunkers for better awareness of people passing by. (Probably useful for new users too.)

Some #CargobikeSharingBETA stats to date. - 14 unique users so far. - These have taken 35 trips. - 37% of those were in the below blue cycle, 63% of them in the below green cycle. - average trip length so far is 2:50hrs, which would average out at approximately €11.

A user of #CargobikeSharingBETA recently brought 5 large and heavy bags to their local charity shop. If you've used either of the cycles in this trial, we'd love to hear more about the types of trips that you're doing. More info on trial and to signup dccbeta.ie/project/article/c…

3 examples of car parking restrictions/permissions - permit parking only, pay & display only, and both types permitted. Do you know of any examples of permit-only restricted parking on public streets in Ireland? (That photo of permit-only parking is from Bath, UK.)

@KildareCoCo Hi folks, is the 'residents only' car parking on Railway Cottage Lane in Sallins maps.app.goo.gl/HSHet15J3fhk… a public or private street, and if the former is it enforced in some way? Our DMs also open, or beta@dublincity.ie if easier for a relevant staff member.

#CooktopBETA has now completed 41 cooking cycles (~6 each week over past 3 weeks). If you've used it, we'd love to hear from you - how it went and any suggestions! Or if you haven't yet, but in theory could (eg it's not too far away) - it'd be also useful to hear those reasons.

New BETA Project! #CooktopBETA Would the addition of public, electric, cooktops to our parks or beaches be a good idea? We'd love to hear your feedback and suggestions on the current trial in Herbert Park - particularly if you use it! dccbeta.ie/project/article/C…

Any suggestions for area-specific attributes that street corner signs might indicate? For eg that the particular street is within: - XXX neighbourhood - an Architectural Conservation Area - a sea level rise risk zone A 'brainstorm' from many years ago dccbeta.ie/brainstorm/topic/…
