Carvelos available free of charge
TCS makes its Carvelo2go fleet available free of charge to organizations, companies or private individuals who wish to provide voluntary support to people who are in need of protection due to COVID-19 and are in isolation or quarantine. In total, more than 300 Cargobikes of the TCS Mobility Academy are available in 70 Swiss cities.
While the measures of the BAG limit a distance of two meters between people and a gathering in public space to a maximum of five people, the population is looking for alternative ways to make purchases and get necessary medicines.
Carvelos at the service of volunteer work
For some weeks now, a moment of solidarity has developed in many places in Switzerland to support people at risk or infected with Corona. For example, volunteers go shopping for people belonging to a risk group. Such outreaches help to contain the spread of the virus and at the same time support vulnerable people to cope with daily life. TCS is now making its Carvelo2go fleet available free of charge for such missions.
Compliance with the hygiene regulations of the FOPH
To protect volunteers and their clients from a COVID-19-To protect against infection, Carvelo users are required to wash/disinfect their hands thoroughly before and after use, and to clean the steering wheel, gears, board computer, saddle, carrying bag and battery after each use.
