Hubway, metro-Boston’s public bike share system, is continuing to expand, with five new stations added to Cambridge this week.

Two new stations are being donated by MIT; one on Vassar Street West, and another on Pacific Street. Lesley University will have one in Porter Square, and additional stations will be installed at University Park and in front of Mt. Auburn Hospital. The new stations connect seamlessly with the rest of the system.

Since opening in 2011, the Hubway system has logged over 5.1 million bicycle miles on more than 3.75 million trips, and Hubway riders have burned 228 million calories and offset 1,200 tons of CO2 emissions. Hubway has over 13,000 annual subscribers and last year sold more than 78,000 24-Hour subscriptions, 10,000 72-Hour subscriptions, and 2,800 monthly subscriptions.
