The village of Croton-on-Hudson recently announced the successful conclusion of the first phase of Project MOVER, the regional e-bike share program. Since its start in Croton-on-Hudson, there were 1,374 e-bike trips, making Croton-on-Hudson the per capita leader for the program. Launched in Croton-on-Hudson on July 9 the program completed its initial season on Dec. 19 before entering a scheduled “winter hibernation.” Service is slated to resume in early April 2026.
In Croton-on-Hudson, there were six strategic hubs where the bikes were docked. Croton Project MOVER hubs were Metro North, South Riverside, Maple Commons, Upper Village, Dobbs Park and the Croton Free Library. Looking ahead to the April relaunch, the village is exploring expansion to new locations, with Senasqua Park and North Riverside frequently cited as potential sites. Village officials welcome continued public input on future hub placement.
In addition to the share program, Project MOVER includes an e-bike incentive program. This initiative provides $1,000 vouchers to eligible participants for the purchase of personal e-bikes.
Over 120 people have been supported through this program to date. Many participants used their vouchers at local businesses, including Croton E-Bikes. Residents can find eligibility and application details at: sharedmobility.org/e-bike-rebates/new-york/westchester.
“It’s been a fantastic opportunity for our community to be part of this bike share program. It’s wonderful to see so many community members adopt this new, low-carbon mode of transportation. I’m very excited about what the re-launch in the Spring brings for 2026,” said Matt Arnold, chairman of Croton’s Bicycle and Pedestrian Committee.
“The success in Croton-on-Hudson is a testament to the public-private partnerships in Westchester’s Rivertowns. Use patterns clearly show a strong adoption for commuting and accessing the village from the Croton-Harmon Station,” said Alex MacCallin, project manager at Shared Mobility Inc.
“With the launch of Project MOVER, Croton-on-Hudson reinforces its commitment to a sustainable, fossil-fuel-free future. This project does more than just protect our environment. Project MOVER strengthens our local economy by connecting people to our business centers and supports a healthier lifestyle. Thank you to NYSERDA, Shared Mobility, and the Bicycle Pedestrian Committee for their partnership in creating this forward-thinking transit option to our residents,” said Mayor Brian Pugh.
Project MOVER is managed by Shared Mobility Inc. and funded through a grant from the New York State Energy Research and Development Authority. It is also available in the town of Ossining and villages of Dobbs Ferry, Ossining, Sleepy Hollow and Tarrytown.
