Electric scooter program is coming to Provo this summer

Kafusi tweeted Monday the city has launched a pilot program with bike sharing program Zagster to bring 200 dockless Spin scooters and 100 bikes to Provo later this year.

Electric scooters are popular in a number of Utah cities already, including Salt Lake City and Ogden. Nearby St. George also has a contract with Zagster.

Provo's parking and sustainability coordinator Austin Taylor said the scooters would be dispersed throughout the city.

He said electric scooters are a popular mode of transportation among students and commuters who use them as last mile transportation from bus stops or train stations.
