The 30-second brief

What they're planning

The latest, from Oct 20: At the October 20, 2026 committee meeting, staff said the Region and the three cities had already launched the shared e-bike and e-scooter program through a joint RFP process. Lime Canada acquired Neuron Micromobility earlier this summer, and staff completed a review to confirm Lime still meets program requirements. The Region and cities will evaluate Lime's performance over the fall and report to Council in Q1 2027, so this is useful incumbent and renewal intelligence.
