The Department has also published guidance for local authorities and e-scooter operators on running trials. It has required them to engage with local police forces and accessibility groups in designing their proposals, to mitigate potential non-compliance and manage e-scooter parking.</p><p> </p><p>When parliamentary time allows, The Government intends to introduce legislation which would enable local authorities to manage rental services of bikes, e-bikes and e-scooters.
