Omaha nonprofit program helps low-income get reduced transportation
“If you’re out and about you may notice there are more e-bikes everywhere you go. ‘What we’re finding is more and more people can now ride the e-bikes versus the classic bikes and they can tackle our hills easily or get to wherever they’re going,’ Benny Foltz, ROAM Share, executive director said. When ROAM’s bike share program first started known as ‘Heartland Bikeshare’ it was meant for fun and exercise using classic bikes. Foltz told 6 News that changed when they introduced the first e-bikes in 2019. ‘We’ve become a transportation option,’ Foltz said.”
