FARGO (KFGO) – The Fargo City Commission has directed to the city attorney’s office to draft new ordinances for a proposed pedal-powered trolley on city streets.
Thomas Stromme, a co-founder of Fargo Pedal Tours, made a presentation to commissioners and explained some of the details. The pedal bike would have seating for 10 pedaling passengers, four riding passengers, and a pilot. Passengers will be required to bring their own beverage and it must be in a can – no glass products. The ticket price is estimated to be between $40 and $45 for a two-hour pedal tour.
Stromme said the routes will run from areas north of I-94, east of University Drive, and south of 19th Avenue North. The plan is to operate during daylight hours.
He told city commissioners a bill now working its way through the legislature may also help clarify questions for cities looking at the same pedal-powered bikes.
