The union that covers the city's transit workers now covers bike share workers in Boston– and plans to expand to bike share programs in Washington, D.C. and Chicago soon.
The Transport Workers Union will now rep Boston's Hubway bike share workers, which like New York's Citi Bike workers, falls under the Portland-based company Alta Bicycle Share.
Alta's incoming CEO Jay Walder clashed with the TWU when he ran the MTA from 2009 to 2011, before he left to take a private-sector job in Hong Kong.
Hundreds of station agents and other workers had lost their jobs under Walder during the financial crisis, as the MTA also made difficult service cuts.
Alta bike share workers will vote on whether to join the TWU on Dec.17 in Washington.
There will then be an election shortly in Chicago, though the date has not been set yet.
"This is a significant win for bike share workers both at Hubway and nationally," said John Samuelsen, executive vice-president at the TWU.
