New Town-Rajarhat is the place where the state government has been implementing all its ideas on green transport options. For instance, the place has so many e-bikes. The satellite township also launched an app-enabled bike taxi service recently which are GPS-enabled. And then there’s the icing on the cake in the form of cycle stations with rented bicycles.
You’ve seen it New York, Boston, Chicago, London and probably across the globe in many cities, part of an ongoing attempt to reduce our individual carbon footprints. New Town has also implemented the same with bicycles for a monthly rent that starts at just INR 177! They have dedicated cycle lanes for residents stretching from Action Area 1 till the New Town bus stop and another loop from Gate 1 to 4 of Eco Park.
