Scoot

E-scooters are a space efficient, accessible and low impact transport, especially for short trips.

Private e-scooter ownership and use is increasing significantly across Australia, and evidence is emerging that people who would otherwise not be confident enough to ride a bike are trying e-scooters for short trips.

E-scooters have the potential to grow the proportion of people who are able to use the ever-expanding bicycle network of protected lanes and paths, in turn freeing up footpath space for pedestrians.

Alongside our hire-and-ride e-scooter program, our actions towards making micromobility (e-scooters) safe, convenient and comfortable for all trips by users of all ages and abilities will help grow this culture within Hobart.
