Charichari shared-cycle service expansion in Japan

Overview

Charichari Co., Ltd. has initiated several partnerships to expand its shared-cycle services across different regions in Japan.

In October 2026, the company launched a transportation social experiment in Kusatsu City, Shiga Prefecture. This initiative, conducted in partnership with Kusatsu City, aims to improve mobility and connectivity between Kusatsu and Otsu cities by establishing bicycle ports at locations such as the Ritsumeikan University Biwako-Kusatsu Campus and Biwako Cultural Park.

Later in the month, Eizan Electric Railway and Charichari entered a partnership to promote decentralized tourism in the Rakuhoku area of Kyoto. This collaboration focuses on strengthening last-mile transportation from stations to tourist destinations, including the installation of a new bike-sharing port at Chayama and Kyoto University of the Arts Station.
