Bike booking app Rapido has offered to provide last mile connectivity to select Delhi Metro stations free of cost to people who would use the trains during the second phase of the odd-even vehicle restriction scheme.

Rapido, as a promotional activity, will be offering free rides from 8 a.m. to 9 p.m. during the 15 days of the odd-even scheme.

The free bikes can be hired in and around 5 km of Malviya Nagar and Hauz Khas stations.

"Rapido's free ride service will provide the most convenient, hassle-free and easy way to hitch a ride," the company's co-founder Aravind Sanka said.

Rapido, which is already operational in Gurgaon and Bengaluru, is a smartphone-based app where one can book a bike ride for travelling solo.
