E-scooters are being used in areas with heavy pedestrian activity such as red ways, around and Westcroft District centre.
Residents have reported people riding two or three up on hire scooters and people riding private hire scooters too fast.
We have recently added a “hotspot” patrol location inclusive of Elfield Park. As well as this, we have completed joint operations with our tasking team and will continue to drive the enforcement in relation to the concerns raised on a monthly basis.
We are continuing to promote and educate members of the public, engage with schools around the use/law on private e-scooters. We have issued warning letters and seized a number of scooters as part of our operations.
