The first episode of our podcast series “Electric scooters: Any Questions?” is now available, supported by Dott, Bird and Link.
Panellists from the West Midlands, Milton Keynes and Northamptonshire were joined by international expert David Zipper and moderated by Rob Whitehead of thinktank Centre for London.
As well as an overview of how trials are shaping up in each of these UK locations, panellists discussed: where hub-based and dockless systems work best, and which areas may switch from one to the other; learning points and warning notes with geofencing technologies; fleet size trends and when Birmingham expects to reach 2,000 scooters; dealing with political and local media reactions; and what happened in Coventry.
