Lime Continuing Operations Into The Winter

Lime will continue Spokane's WheelShare program throughout winter, ensuring access to shared scooters and bikes for those relying on them. The initiative aims to facilitate safe travel to transit stops while reducing automobile usage and wear on city roads. Lime plans to proactively remove devices ahead of snowy or icy weather to enhance safety and support efficient snow removal operations. Scooters and bikes will be reintroduced once conditions are safe. With over 500,000 trips recorded this year, WheelShare has established itself as a critical component of Spokane's transportation infrastructure.

Maintaining winter operations is essential for the program's sustainability and safety for users. The city has recognized the importance of shared mobility in supporting short trips and reducing traffic congestion. Continuation of the program reflects a commitment to enhancing urban mobility and accessibility.
