Council is disappointed that Lime and Neuron have decided to pull their e-Scooters out of Yarra. The Council is clear that it will not continue to subsidise these services from ratepayers’ money.

Council has gone above and beyond to try and make the scheme work and understands many in the community will be disappointed at this decision.

We will work with the operators to transition scooters out of the City in the next few weeks, as well as proceed with the procurement process for a new e-Scooters contract.

We are confident that any company who bids will do so knowing the expectations of Council and its residents on how the scheme needs to operate.
