E-scooters to stay on Selwyn streets after successful trial
E-scooters will remain in Selwyn for at least another year following a successful six-month trial.
The Selwyn District Council has offered contracts to e-scooter companies Lime and Lava, allowing them to operate in the region for another year, the council announced on Wednesday.
A total of 220 scooters will operate in Rolleston, Lincoln and Prebbleton, and on cycleways between the towns. The companies will pay an annual licence fee of $72.79 a year per scooter ($16,013.80 in total).
The move comes after 300 e-scooters were trialled in the district for six months, starting in mid-December last year. The trial was due to end in June, but was extended to the end of July due to the coronavirus-enforced lockdown.
