In Progress

Newcastle upon Tyne City Council is partnering with Neuron Mobility to launch a 12-month trial for new talking e-scooters. The trial is designed to provide residents with a safe, socially-distanced, and environmentally-friendly transport option during the COVID-19 pandemic. The 250 Neuron e-scooters included in the trial are GPS-enabled allowing the Council to control where they are ridden, how fast they can travel, and where they can park.
