The head of New York City's bike share program is stepping down. Here's the statement from New York City Bike Share.
Justin Ginsburgh oversaw the launch of the nation's largest bike share system as the General Manager for New York City Bike Share. His experience in managing complex real estate deals as well as City and State politics made him ideal for this position and this time. He is departing New York City Bike Share to serve as a special adviser to Peter Lehrer, the principal of Lehrer, LLC, world-renowned for managing large scale complex construction projects. We wish Justin the best in his new endeavors and welcome Eddie Inlow, former General Manager of Divvy Bikes in Chicago and current COO of Alta Bicycle Share, who will oversee general operations as we conduct a national search.
Despite the program's popularity with New Yorkers — it has nearly 100,000 annual members — in recent days, Citi Bike has come under fire for financial problems.
No word yet from the mayor's office. The New York City Department of Transportation declined further comment.
