Description

In early May 2020, the Department for Transport ('DfT') announced its intention to start trials of rental e-scooters, to help support cities across the United Kingdom as part of their restart and recovery response following the Coronavirus-induced lockdown.

DfT has demonstrated its preference for coordination of trials at a local level. Transport for London ('TfL') has therefore been working with London Councils as representative for the 32 London boroughs and the City of London Corporation (the 'Boroughs') with the intent to administer, coordinate and evaluate such trial with the potential for all Boroughs in Greater London to participate. By coordinating efforts, TfL and the Boroughs can:

(i) drive a consistent and safe trial standard across London;

(ii) provide an evidence base for TfL and the Borough's own policy position on the e-scooters and DfT's research to inform possible changes to legislation regarding e-scooters; and

(iii) provide an alternative transport option.
