Glasgow e-scooter scheme recommended for approval

Scotland’s first e-scooter rental trial is a step closer to reality.

The Scotsman reports that councillors in the city have been recommended to approve the scheme, which would mean e-scooters are permitted on roads and cycle paths but not pavements. They would be limited to 15.5 mph.

The report says the plan will be considered by the council’s environment, sustainability and carbon reduction policy committee next week with a recommendation to pass it t the city administration committee for approval.

However it’s understood the Scottish Government will need to make legislative changes to make this happen.
