Bicycle and electric scooter rental season is over in Moscow

The season of bicycle rental and electric scooter rental has come to an end in Moscow. This was reported by Maxim Liksutov, Deputy Mayor for Transport and Industry of the capital.

He noted that the city came to a stable minus temperature, so for safety reasons the rental season was completed on November 15, writes NSN. Operators are gradually taking transport to service centers. There they will be prepared for the next season, specifies RIAMO. Scooters and bicycles can still remain in parking lots, but renting is no longer available, writes IA Regnum.

According to Liksutov, this season more than 73 million trips were made on bicycles and electric scooters, reports the agency of city news "Moscow". In 85% of cases, transportation was taken to get to the subway, stops of urban ground transportation, a place of study, work or home, specifies the website kp.ru.

In October, lawyer Ivan Solovyov proposed to ban riding electric scooters in rain and snow. He sent a corresponding appeal to Russian Interior Minister Vladimir Kolokoltsev.
