Shared e-Scooters Roll Back into Regina
The City is pleased to announce that starting today shared e-scooters are available to rent in Regina through two vendors, Bird and Neuron.
Residents and visitors to Regina can visit Regina.ca/escooters to learn more about rules and regulations around safely riding e-scooters and find the links to download the Bird and Neuron app.
The City is working closely with both vendors and the accessibility community to ensure that the program is safe, reliable and enjoyable for all users. Both shared and personal e-scooter users must follow these rules to operate safely within Regina:
- One rider at a time. No passengers are allowed.
- Helmets are mandatory.
- Riders must be at least 16 years old.
- E-scooters are allowed to operate on multi-use pathways, bike lanes and on roads that have a speed limit of 50 km/hr or less.
- The maximum speed limit for riding on roadways and bike lanes is 24 km/hr.
- The maximum speed limit for riding on pathways is 15 km/hr.
- Riders should travel in bike lanes where possible.
- E-scooters should follow the City’s parking regulations when parking in residential areas.
- Be considerate of others, especially members of the accessibility community by never leaving e-scooters on a sidewalk, pathway or in a bike lane.
- Shared e-scooters are not allowed on Regina Transit.
E-scooters are a great way to get around our city and provide an alternate mode of transportation. Adding e-scooters as a transportation option is one way to help the City of Regina achieve its goal of achieving a renewable, net zero City by 2050.
