4 tests were conducted on two potential routes for Freebee Circulator . ● Each route was run twice, once simulating heavy traffic and passenger loads and once with lighter traffic and passenger loads. ● Route 1 ○ On the heavy test 4 stops were skipped. ○ On the light test 8 stops were skipped. ● Route 2 ○ On the heavy test 2 stops were skipped. ○ On the light test 5 stops were skipped. ● At most stops, 3 passengers participating in the test departed and reboarded the vehicle to approach normal conditions (typically, there would not be passengers at every stop) ● Based on the results 15 minute service could be provided for either route with 2 vehicles.

LIMEBIKE: IMPROVEMENTS Bike Rebalancing - rebalance half of the fleet on a daily basis, meaning every bike on Key Biscayne is touched by an employee every other day. Safety, Fleet & Bike Maintenance - ensure bikes are promptly removed from service when not 100% operational and deployed back into the market. Our daily sweeps ensure we can get out eyes (and tools) on it before the customer ever sees it. If a customer does see something, they are able to provide detailed information within the app as to the issue and our Customer Support promptly removes the bike from service. Finally, ensure we are always living up to our obligations in terms of bikes deployed and their physical shape. 'Hot Spots' / 'No Go' Zones - Upon finalization of the Service Agreement, perform a 'ride-along' with someone from village staff to identify more precisely where bikes should be and importantly, where they should not be. Build findings into Operational Plan shared with Village and Limebike ground staff.
