China:’Bicycle graveyard’ in a vacant lot: Xian soccer field

-Shared bicycles become a social problem-

Shared bicycle:

From around 2016, shared bicycles have rapidly become widespread in China.

However, illegal bicycle parking and oversupply are obstacles to traffic.

Accumulation areas called graveyards have appeared in various places.

Xi’an Soccer Field:

Bicycle-sharing, which has exploded in popularity in China, has become a social problem.

In Xi’an, China, 200,000 bicycles were left in a vacant lot for five soccer fields.

Xi’an City Authorities:

The number of shared bicycles is increasing too much.

I had a company collect a bicycle that was left outside the stop area.

However, the citizens are confused.

Xi’an Citizens:

“It’s more inconvenient than before because there are fewer shared bicycles.”
