This autumn, we'll be finalising our approach to e-bikes and e-scooters 🚲 We already have a strong idea of the benefits and disadvantages associated with e-bike operations, but we are keen to hear fresh views, both positive and negative, particularly from those who have not expressed their opinions officially before. Your views on e-bikes will help to inform our future approach to hire schemes in the borough. Read more and share your thoughts ⬇️ https://richmond.gov.uk/share_views_on_e_bikes
