Next spring, those traveling around Indianapolis will have a new transportation option. French company Bollore is starting an electric car share program in the city.
Users will pay a monthly fee and a per trip service rate, which have not been determined yet. In Paris, monthly membership is $16 and it costs about $4.50 for a 20 minute trip.
Indianapolis Mayor Greg Ballard believes the program will help create a more vibrant downtown and attract new people to the area. He says it could mean residents put off buying a car or second car.
