Dockless cycle hire is about to become the same price as a bus fare in Hackney | Hackney Council News Renting a dockless e-bike will cost the same as a single bus fare, following a new agreement between Hackney Council and operators Lime and Voi.

Cycling in Hackney could see another step change with this new announcement - Lime & Voi bikes reducing their prices for journeys within the borough. £1.75 for a 30min ride (same as a bus fare) and Lime offering unltd monthly pass for £45 which caps rides at £1
