Local Priorities

Widespread illegal use of E- Scooters/E-Bikes.
Use by members of the public commuting.
Often used by takeaway delivery drivers (Just Eat, Deliveroo etc).
Often being purchased by parents for juvenile use.
Apparent confusion around the legality of their use in public.
Some confusion appears due to some Major Cities trialling rental schemes within certain City Centre boundaries.
