review the Department is running trials of rental e-scooters which will decide whether
micromobility devices should be allowed on the road and, if so, what rules should
apply to them. We have put in place a national monitoring and evaluation programme

report due in spring 2022.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p>
