Description of Our Community: Taipei is the political, economic, educational, and cultural center of Taiwan. Considered to be a global city, Taipei is part of a major high-tech industrial area. Railways, high-speed rail, highways, airports, and bus lines connect Taipei with all parts of the island. Public transport accounts for a substantial portion of different modes of transport in Taiwan, with Taipei residents having the highest utilization rate at 34.1%. In the hope of elevating life and culture in the city and in response to a global trend of energy conservation and carbon mitigation, the Taipei City Government, in collaboration with Giant Taiwan, initiated the Taipei Bike Sharing System Service Plan, also known as“YouBike ”.

Project Description: On a clear day, we can often see orange figures shuttle in Taipei city. That's right, it's Youbike. In recent years of development, Youbike has obviously become one of the most important means of transport. For instance, businessmen and students or even others can use this eco-friendly facility in an easy way. How the facility affects us in our daily life? And which kind of view the public hold for the Youbike? To amplify the efficiency of this measure, and make it easier for the public to use. We started our research, and hope to let the public having more understanding of Youbike, and become the City Biker shuttle in the city.
