LAVAL — Lime relaunched its fleet of e-scooters for 2024 in Laval and emphasized a focus on safe riding and proper parking. Lime says they have high hopes for this year in Laval and will be doubling its fleet from 100 to 200 vehicles to meet the demand from residents and visitors that was evident from day one last year. To celebrate the relaunch, Lime will provide 15% off one ride per rider from now through May 31.

“Lime remains grateful for the opportunity to continue to provide safe, affordable, and sustainable transportation options to Laval. Our goal from day one has been to ensure that the addition of shared e-scooters to the city’s transportation network is seamless and beneficial to all road users, connecting people to existing ways to get around and helping provide first and last-mile transit solutions. We saw last year the potential for micromobility to connect people with Laval Societe de Transport, alleviate congestion, reduce emissions, and support the economy by helping people visit the city’s restaurants and cultural attractions. As we return this year we will continue to emphasize safe riding and proper parking as we know that is the key to success in Laval,” said Sonia Kandola, Director of Government Relations

Lime recently announced that 2023 was its best year ever globally with over 150 million rides and $600 million in gross bookings. That financial success allows Lime to dedicate resources to hardware, staffing, and technology and to invest in local programs like Laval with the goal of always improving service over time. Lime says they are one of the largest shared electric vehicle providers in Canada. Lime runs safe and tidy shared electric vehicle programs with booming ridership in Edmonton, Kelowna, Richmond, Coquitlam, and the North Shore.
