Santa Brought New Bubi Stations to Budapest

Have you heard the news about the new MOL Bubi stations in Budapest? It’s exciting stuff, folks! Let me walk you through all the cool updates and improvements that have recently been made to this popular bike-sharing system in Hungary’s vibrant capital city.

New Stations, New Bikes!

The MOL Bubi system has been expanding at a rapid pace, with new stations popping up all over the city. Just recently, new stations were opened in various locations, including the Lechner Ödön fasor in District IX and the intersection of Lőportár Street and Kassák Lajos Street in District XIII. These new stations have been warmly welcomed by locals and workers in the area, thanks to a community budget initiative.

Back in Action

Good news for residents of the József Attila housing estate in Ferencváros – the MOL Bubi station on Pöttyös Street is back in action! After some renovations around the metro station, residents now have easy access to a fleet of 2460 bright green bikes. And guess what? There are more new locations in the pipeline, so stay tuned for even more convenient bike-sharing options!

Winter-Proof and Ready to Roll

The MOL Bubi system is a year-round affair, with bikes available even during colder months. Thanks to regular maintenance and servicing, these bikes are reliable transportation options no matter the season. In fact, last winter, one adventurous soul even took a MOL Bubi bike all the way up to Kékes Mountain – now that’s some serious dedication!

More Stations on the Horizon

But wait, there’s more! The Budapest Transport Company (BKK) is working on adding even more collection points to make it even easier to use the MOL Bubi system. With developments spanning multiple districts, getting around town on these iconic green bikes has never been simpler.

Celebrating a Decade of Cycling

Can you believe it’s been ten years since the launch of MOL Bubi? Since 2014, these distinctive green bikes have become an integral part of Budapest’s urban landscape. From an initial fleet of 1100 bikes to over 2400 today, it’s clear that Budapest has truly embraced this eco-friendly mode of transport. And with financial support from the MOL-New Europe Foundation, there’s no telling how much further this bike-sharing system will grow.

So there you have it – the latest and greatest updates on the MOL Bubi system in Budapest. Whether you’re a local looking for a convenient way to get around town or a visitor eager to explore the city on two wheels, these new stations and bikes are sure to make your cycling experience even more enjoyable.
