About this event
Micromobility vehicles, particularly e-scooters, have rapidly emerged as a popular transport option in cities worldwide, including South Australia. Several local trials have been conducted to understand their impact and feasibility. This event aims to share the valuable lessons learned from these trials, featuring insights from council representatives and the Department for Infrastructure and Transport (DIT) on the legalities surrounding e-scooters. The event concluded with an interactive session exploring the opportunities/implications of micromobility on our urban landscape in South Australia, followed by an opportunity to network.
Tea, coffee, and nibbles will be provided.
Logistics: You will be required to report at the concierge on the day to gain access to level 17 where the event will be held.
