We are wrapping up our first shared e-scooter and e-bike riding season in Lethbridge, with the last day of service set for November 28. We thank the City of Lethbridge, the Lethbridge Chamber of Commerce and our riders for embracing Neuron as the city’s micromobility program grows in popularity.

Since launching in April 2022, riders in Lethbridge have travelled 430,000 kilometres on our e-scooters and e-bikes. With 52% of Neuron trips replacing a car journey, 36 tonnes of CO2 emissions were avoided. Extending the range of our riders, we expanded the riding area on three occasions to include North Lethbridge, portions of the city’s trail system in the River Valley, and most recently, Lethbridge College campus.

The economic impact of Neuron e-scooters was evident in Lethbridge, too. Six out of 10 trips resulted in a purchase at a local business which amounts to an estimated $3.2 million spent. For a more detailed look at how Neuron e-scooters are helping drive the local economy, check out our 2022 Canada Prosperity Report. 

We’re proud of the positive impact Neuron vehicles have made on the local communities and are happy to help tens of thousands of people in Lethbridge get around in a safe, convenient and environmentally-friendly way. 

Thank you to our city partners and riders for an incredible riding season in Lethbridge!

We are wrapping up another successful shared e-scooter riding season in Ottawa, with the last day of service set for November 15. We thank the City of Ottawa, all city stakeholders and our riders for embracing Neuron as the city’s e-scooter program continues to grow in popularity.

This season, Ottawa was the first city in the world to implement Neuron’s new ‘e-scooter brain’ across an entire e-scooter fleet, helping them better integrate into the city. It enabled us to provide high accuracy geofencing, precise smart parking locations and better detection and control of sidewalk riding.

To date, our riders in the capital city have travelled over 330,000 kilometres since our launch in 2021. With 41% of Neuron trips replacing a car journey, 22 tonnes of CO2 emissions have been avoided. In fact, 95% of our riders surveyed in Ottawa believe Neuron has benefited their city and also improved mobility, air quality and congestion.

Neuron is also committed to partnering with Business Improvement Areas and has had an economic impact in Ottawa. Seven out of 10 trips resulted in a purchase at a local business which amounts to an estimated $2 million spent each year.

Thank you to the City of Ottawa, our business partners, and riders for another successful riding season! 

Beginning today, our e-scooter and e-bike riding area is expanding to include Lethbridge College. This will increase our riding area by 80 hectares, giving the College’s over 5,000 students, faculty, and staff a safe, convenient and environmentally-friendly option to travel to the campus and between classes.

Monday, October 31 is the final day to enjoy a Neuron e-scooter ride in Red Deer and Airdrie. The winter weather has crept up so all e-scooters will be collected by Neuron staff before being checked and stored until spring 2023.

2022 was a remarkable year for Neuron e-scooters in both cities and our riders travelled over 310,000 kilometres. To date, the two cities have avoided a total of 49 tonnes of CO2 emissions.

The economic impact of Neuron e-scooters was evident in Red Deer and Airdrie, too. Seven out of 10 trips resulted in a purchase at a local business which amounts to an estimated $3.5 million spent. For a more detailed look at how Neuron e-scooters are helping drive the local economy, check out our 2022 Canada Prosperity Report. 

We’re proud of the positive impact Neuron vehicles have made on the local communities and are happy to help tens of thousands of people in Red Deer and Airdrie get around in a safe, convenient and environmentally-friendly way. 

Thank you to our city partners and riders for an incredible riding season in Canada! See you in 2023!
