VOICED: Dublin's rent-a-bike scheme gets on the road

The video discusses the historical significance of bicycles in Dublin, which were once the main mode of transport. With the economic boom, cars took over, but now the city aims to reintroduce cycling through the Dublin Bikes rental scheme. The scheme, which operates via subscription, is seen as a way to improve the image of cyclists and reduce traffic congestion. Dublin's geography, with its flat terrain, is ideal for cycling. The city plans to expand cycling paths to make bicycles a dominant mode of transport again, driven by choice rather than necessity.
