GRAND ISLAND, Neb. (AP) — Officials have rolled out a new bike sharing program that will provide students and staff of the Central Community College in Grand Island with another way to get to and from campus.

Students and employees can check out one of five new bicycles for a 24-hour period. A grant worth more than $10,500 from the Blue Cross Blue Shield of Nebraska funded the program, which was revealed on Thursday.

The program’s launch was perfect timing for psychology student Gach Rom, whose car recently broke down. Rom says the program should encourage Grand Island residents to think more about health as well as environmental sustainability.
