JEFFERSON CITY, MO (KMIZ)
City council members are planned to discuss bringing a scooter ride-sharing service to Jefferson City at the city council meeting Monday night.
The Bird scooter company is interested in bringing its services to Jefferson City. The company is requesting an exclusive agreement to provide the ride-sharing service to the city's rights-of-way.
The city previously had an exclusive agreement with the scooter ride-sharing company Spin scooters in 2019. The city decided to remove the scooters in the winter due to inclement and cold weather conditions.
When the scooters were planned to be brought back to the city in the spring of 2020, Spin decided not to renew the contract with the city due to a lack of ridership. Jefferson City Parks and Recreation Department at that time said the scooters were popular when they first arrived, but riders lost interest after a while.
Jefferson City residents could see the return of scooters if city council members decide to move forward with Bird's exclusive agreement. The city council meeting begins at 6 p.m. at City Council Chambers.
