With the official opening of our new bike service station on Salzburger Straße, Sony DADC is sending a clear message in support of sustainable mobility. The station, provides a bike rack, an air pump, and tools for minor repairs, all free of charge.
The network of bike service stations is growing steadily throughout the state of Salzburg: there are now around 40 stations in the state and an additional 15 stations in the city of Salzburg. Our new station is located on one of the most important main cycling routes in the state of Salzburg, thereby strengthening the regional cycling infrastructure.
Mayor Johann Grubinger and Robert Haberpointner from the Thalgau Building Authority accepted our invitation to the opening – a sign of the close cooperation between the municipality and the company.
Werner Gangl emphasized our clear commitment to sustainable mobility and the promotion of cycling. Mayor Grubinger praised Sony DADC’s numerous environmental initiatives.
For the municipality of Thalgau, the new bike service station fits well into the local sustainability plans. As part of the e5 program, which supports municipalities in systematically advancing energy efficiency and climate protection, Thalgau has just received its fifth “e.” Part of this plan is the municipality’s mobility program: Thalgau participates in the Salzburg State “FahrRad” advisory program, which is based on the Europe-wide recognized BYPAD methodology, designed to help municipalities professionally develop cycling infrastructure, raise awareness, and plan initiatives. Thus, according to Mayor Grubinger, the Sony DADC bike service station also makes a substantive contribution to the municipality’s sustainability goals.
