SCOOTER UPDATES

Scooter Stats for 2022

NOVEMBER 2022 - In 2022, there were a total of 130,944 scooter trips and 503 bike trips (averaging 500 combined a day in peak months). We continue to see connective roads such as Gay Street, Clinch Avenue, White Avenue, and North Central Street being the streets of highest scooter use (see heat map below), a trend that suggests that most micro mobility rides are used for point-to-point destination travel.

Overall, we believe the micro mobility program offers a safe way for locals and visitors to get around our City in a quiet, low-emission manner.

A City staff committee continues to meet on a regular basis to review data and discuss any needed modifications to improve operations.

Scooter Changes and Shared Electric Bikes

AUGUST 2022 - The City’s Shared Dockless Scooter Program is evolving. A new vendor, Bird, has been selected to begin operating in the center city and University of Tennessee areas, joining LINK, which has been serving Knoxville for more than two years. Look for Bird to deploy its first scooters later this week.

But more importantly, the new permits with LINK and Bird include added accountability measures, plans to install parking corrals to reduce overnight scooter clutter, and – for the first time – electric bike shares.
