Municipality expands shared mobility with additional Donkey Republic bikes
The offer of shared mobility is expanding further in the municipality of Leidschendam-Voorburg. Shared bike provider Donkey Republic is placing additional shared bikes at multiple locations in the municipality. With this, the municipality aims to make it easier for residents and visitors to travel in a sustainable, flexible, and relatively affordable way. The shared bikes will primarily be used for trips to and from public transport stops, train stations, shopping areas, and other facilities. At the Oosteinde tram stop (line 19), the recently added hub has now been expanded with shared bikes, allowing different forms of shared mobility to converge in one location.

A hub is a location where people can pick up and park shared scooters, bikes, and often shared cars. Via an app, you can easily register, reserve a vehicle, and ride. It is convenient, fast, and sustainable. Mobility alderman Jeffrey Keus visited the hub at Oosteinde and took a ride on a shared bike together with representative Arnaud Renoy of Donkey Republic. Jeffrey Keus: “With the expansion of shared bikes, we are offering residents and visitors an additional, sustainable way to travel quickly and easily to, from, and through our municipality. By bringing different forms of shared mobility together in one location, such as here at the hub at Oosteinde, we are making the choice for sustainable transport increasingly attractive.” Arnaud Renoy of Donkey Republic: “With this expansion of the network, the bike becomes a genuine regional transport option. You can hop on a bike in Voorburg and, without any hassle, be in The Hague, Delft, or on the beach in Scheveningen.”
Shared scooters and cars
In addition to the expansion of shared bikes, the municipality is working with providers Felyx and Check to improve shared scooters, such as creating better facilities for parking shared transport and reducing nuisance. Shared car companies Greenwheels and MyWheels are also expanding their offerings in 2026. Shared cars help reduce parking pressure in residential areas. With shared mobility in various forms, the municipality ensures good accessibility of Leidschendam-Voorburg and the region.
