Brisbane's original scooter hire scheme, Lime, is set to return to the city with 1700 e-scooters and 400 e-bikes as part of a new deal with Brisbane City Council. Lime's green machines will replace Neuron's orange fleet.

Even more electric scooters will soon be on Brisbane streets, as the city’s original scooter hire scheme prepares its return to the city this year.

A spokeswoman for Lord Mayor Adrian Schrinner said a “competitive market process” last year established a new operating agreement for e-scooters and e-bikes, which would start on July 22. Ahead of its Brisbane relaunch, Lime regional general manager Hugo Burt-Morris said there had been a 135 per cent year-on-year increase in the number of trips taken on the company’s vehicles in Australia.“Brisbane has proven to be a world leader in micromobility, and we think this position will only continue to grow once the launch of our Gen4 vehicles occurs,” he said.
