So it looks like an average of 1,000 people have been using the REV every day since it opened. And that’s during a pandemic winter when cycling conditions are far from ideal and most people are working from home.
It’s not such a stretch to imagine that REV will meet its projections of 10,000 users a day later this year, especially if the vaccination campaign goes as planned.
