Bluebikes Offers Free Rides During Red Line Shutdown

This article is adapted from a Bluebikes press release.

Blue Cross Blue Shield of Massachusetts will once again sponsor free Bluebikes unlock codes to provide people with an alternative method of transportation during this month's MBTA Red Line closure.

The unlocks are available to non-members of Bluebikes, and can be redeemed for both traditional pedal bikes and the innovative ebikes (per minute fees still apply).

The unlocks are available for use only during the closure and while supplies last.

To redeem, use the code MBTAREDJULY in the Bluebikes app. This promotion will be available throughout the system’s 13 participating municipalities: Arlington, Boston, Brookline, Cambridge, Chelsea, Everett, Malden, Medford, Newton, Revere, Salem, Somerville, and Watertown.
