Last week Maryland announced $2.5 million in grants to develop bikesharing in the state. The money is on top of funds already dedicated to bikesharing in Baltimore and Rockville.
Since plenty of funding is now committed and planning work is well underway, it seems like a good time to catch up on where bikesharing stations are due to be installed. This information doesn’t seem to be available at any other centralized location, so here you are:
Location | Stations | Opening | Funding Source |

Rockville / Shady Grove | 20 | 2012 | JARC program |
Lower Montgomery County (Silver Spring, Takoma Park, Bethesda, Friendship Heights) |
