Discover a new way to commute and embrace eco-friendly living with Tampa’s e-Bike Voucher Program! The program, set to kick off again, offers City of Tampa residents the opportunity to apply for vouchers towards purchasing e-Bikes, promoting sustainable transportation choices.
Unlike a traditional bike giveaway, this initiative allows individuals, aged 18 and above, to apply for vouchers ranging from $1,000 to $3,000 based on income levels. The application window opens tomorrow, running until August 30th, presenting a limited chance to secure your voucher for an e-Bike.
Past applicants who were not selected in previous rounds are automatically entered into the upcoming selection process, ensuring fair opportunities for all. With 108 vouchers available this time around, the excitement is palpable as residents eagerly anticipate the results of the lottery-style drawing.
The successful recipients will have the chance to redeem their vouchers at select participating bike shops, paving the way for a more sustainable and convenient mode of transportation in the city. Let’s join hands in promoting green living and reducing our carbon footprint, one e-Bike at a time!
