Mississauga’s system of e-scooters will soon be taken out of service for the season.
The system launched for the first time in June, with hundreds of e-bikes and e-scooters for rent in various parts of Mississauga as the City embarked on a plan to have people use other viable and widespread modes of transportation.
Bird Canada and Lime Technology, Inc. are the two companies taking part in the shared micro-mobility program.
The City has revealed that on Dec. 20, the e-scooters will be taken out of service for the winter.
E-bikes, however, will still be available for use.
There are some exceptions depending on weather conditions.
For instance, on Wednesday use of both e-bikes and e-scooters was paused given winter weather conditions.
The City previously told INsauga.com that the winter operations plan will stay in place “until persistent winter weather conditions end, at which point the service providers will begin readjusting their fleet and the service area to resume regular operations.”
