Baltimore’s new pilot program could help you buy an e-bike. Here’s how.

Baltimoreans can now apply for a voucher to help them buy electric bicycles. The application window for the pilot program opened on Tuesday and runs through Oct. 10, according to the city’s Department of Transportation. The city hopes the program will break down financial barriers to owning an e-bike and encourage more environmentally friendly transportation, as well as help alleviate traffic congestion.
