Bike on Rent facility approved in Delhi by Transport Department

Delhi Transport Department today has approved the plan of Bike on Rent facility in the New Delhi. This move has been approved in mind while aiming at tourist and providing last mile connectivity to tourism in the state and local individual as well. The procedure is quite simple if you want to get into this business. There will be licenses that will be issued for motorcycles which can be hired for use by individuals and tourists.

The Licensee should have a minimum of five motorcycles to be rented along with office space of 150 square feet as proof and to start this business. These motorcycles will be commercially registered and given contract carriage permit as well. Last time when everyone across a similar facility was available in the state Goa, where usually tourist can rent a motorcycle or a scooter for a day against the payment of daily charge with other expenses on the rider such as fuel. The “bike taxi” services are still not made available like other Asian cities because of security reasons says the government. 

Rent Rates of Motorcycles in Delhi : Harley Davidson Super-low – Rs.4500 Kawasaki Ninja 650 – Rs.4500 Suzuki Hayabusa – Rs.4000 Hyosung Aquila 250 – Rs.3000 Kawasaki Ninja 250 – Rs.3000 Royal Enfield Thunderbird 500 – Rs.1200 Yamaha R15 – Rs.900 KTM Duke 200 – Rs.900 Royal Enfield Standard – Rs.900 Bajaj Pulsar 220/NS200/ Avenger – Rs.700 Bajaj Discover/ Pulsar 135 – Rs.500 Hero Splendor – Rs.400 Gearless Scooter – Activa/Jupiter – Rs. 500 

Tourism department plans these bikes renting parlours will be available usually at metro stations, ISBTs and railway stations and important places across the capital, which will indeed the perfect place to start and waiting for public transport to take you places won’t be necessary if you can afford the bike rentals. The people who want to rent these motorcycles will be required to submit their identity at counter. Official claims that Transport department will notify the proposal by the end of this month. This is a good move by the government as our cities are ideal for two-wheelers than four-wheeler considering traffic conditions and small roads.
