During this period, <strong>the 424 current stations will start to be replaced<\/strong>\u00a0for the new <em>bicing <\/em>stations, with corresponding modifications to the operational and technological systems. The transformation process will happen gradually, and for more than three months, the two systems will run alongside each other. The replacements will start in the districts of <strong><u><a href=\"https:\/\/ajuntament.barcelona.cat\/noubarris\/es\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Nou Barris<\/a><\/u><\/strong> and <strong><u><a href=\"https:\/\/ajuntament.barcelona.cat\/santandreu\/es\/el-distrito-y-sus-barrios\/el-distrito-y-sus-barrios\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Sant Andreu<\/a><\/u><\/strong>, and <strong>8 stations will be changed out<\/strong> <strong>each day<\/strong>, with the goal of having <strong>50% of the old ones modified by halfway through February<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>For users, there will be no interruptions in service during this time, and <strong>they will be able to use both systems with the same cards<\/strong> they currently have. However, they will only be able to use departure and arrival stations in the same system: users that take an old\u00a0<em>Bicing<\/em>\u00a0bike will be able to dock them at an old station, and the same with new ones. While the transition period is underway, the underground electric bicycle stations will continue to be available and operational until it ends. During this modification process, <strong>24-hour service for the new system will also start<\/strong>, as well as access to the service through the app.<\/p>\n<p>Starting in the second half of April going until the end of 2019, a second deployment period will begin, the expansion period during which the rest of improvements to the new <em>Bicing <\/em>will begin to be done.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Improvements to the new\u00a0<em>Bicing<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>More service:\u00a0<\/strong>24-hour operation, 365 days a year.<\/li>\n<li><strong>More bicycles<\/strong>: 7,000 bikes: 6,000 mechanical bikes + 1,000 electrical ones.<\/li>\n<li><strong>More and better stations<\/strong>: 519 mixed, above-ground stations, with physical integration for both types of bicycles: all the racks will work with the conventional model as well as the electric model, and they will be stronger and more durable.
