  • Mexico City's Mobility Secretariat (Semovi) has launched an international tender for the Ecobici public bicycle system.

The Secretariat of Mobility (Semovi) in Mexico City has initiated an international public tender to contract the comprehensive service of the Public Bicycle Individual Transport System, known as Ecobici. This expansion will bring the service to the boroughs of Iztacalco, Iztapalapa, and Tlalpan, areas that currently do not have Ecobici. The tender documents, available for 100,000 pesos, can be acquired until August 9. The proposal submission and opening will take place on August 14, with the award announcement scheduled for August 17 at Semovi's headquarters. Payment for the tender documents can be made via interbank transfer. The contract, once awarded, will be effective from its signing until July 31, 2036. The Ecobici system currently operates in several other boroughs, including Álvaro Obregón, Azcapotzalco, Benito Juárez, Coyoacán, Cuauhtémoc, Miguel Hidalgo, and Tlalpan. This initiative aims to enhance sustainable transportation options within the city by extending the reach of the popular bike-sharing program.
