The second round of Chicago’s electric scooter pilot program kicked off Wednesday, following a 2019 program that left city leaders wanting more information.
Last year’s trial run saw more than 800,000 rides during a four-month period with 10 companies participating. This time, it’s just three: Bird, Lime, and Spin. But you’ll see more scooters on Chicago’s streets, and they’ll be allowed across most of the city. The hope is scooters can increase mobility for Chicagoans in parts of town with fewer transportation options, a goal the program fell short of last year.
