• The Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) promises numerous benefits for smart cities and intelligent transport is not an exception. This work demonstrates one such benefit by designing and implementing an IoT bicycle sharing service for smart city transportation. The proposed system is also based on renewable energy further pushing the drive towards zero carbon emission. The proposed system is composed of two subsystems namely a smart docking rack and a bicycle subsystem. This is coupled with server communication based on a Low Power Wide Area Network (LPWAN) protocol and a mobile application for efficient bicycle tracking, obstacle monitoring and billing management. The proposed sharing service was deployed on a university campus with a vision to scale up to smart city applications.
