THE E-SCOOTER trial in<br />
<strong>Selwyn</strong> has been extended<br />
because the machines could not<br />
be used during the lockdown.<br />
The trial for Lime and Lincolnbased<br />
company Lava Scooters<br />
began in December last year<br />
and was expected to finish this<br />
month.<br />
Said district council regulatory<br />
manager Billy Charlton: “The<br />
council has extended the trial to<br />
cover six months of the scooters<br />
in operation.<br />
“The aim of the trial was<br />
to gather data and assess the<br />
operation of the scooters over<br />
a six-month operating period,<br />
which is why we have extended<br />
it,” he said.<br />
E-scooters were unable to<br />
operate during alert level 4 which<br />

means they lost about a month of<br />
the trial.<br />
“Staff are carrying out ongoing<br />
analysis of the data being provided<br />
to the council, which will<br />
be included in the review of the<br />
e-scooters.”<br />
The district council has not<br />
received any applications from<br />
other scooter companies to operate<br />
in <strong>Selwyn</strong>.<br />
The e-scooters are allowed<br />
to operate in Rolleston, Lincoln<br />
and Prebbleton and to travel<br />
between the towns using cycle<br />
lanes.<br />
