Essex County Council
(Borough of Colchester) (Covid-19 E-Scooter Trial) 2021
Notice is hereby given that the Essex County Council has made the above Order under Sections 9 and 10 and Parts III and IV of Schedule 9 to the Road Traffic Regulation Act 1984 as amended, the Electric Scooter Trials and Traffic Signs (Coronavlrus) Regulations and General Directions 2020 and pursuant to the order made by the Department of Transport under Section 44 and Section 63(5) of the Road Traffic Act 1988 as amended which provides that an authorised operator can permit their rental electric scooters to be used on roads within the geo fenced area of Colchester (as outlined on the website) during an authorised trial, intend to make an order, the effect of which will be to allow electric scooters to be used in those cycle tacks and cycle lanes within these areas which are either restricted for use by traffic and which permit pedal cycles or solo motor cycles to use these road spaces.
Effect of the order: Following a successful Department for Transport bid Essex County Council has partnered with SPIN to trial for a maximum 12 month period permitting electric scooters to use road spaces restricted for certain vehicle classes and types encouraging the promotion of alternative travel measures in line with Government guidance in order to ease the burden on the transport network and provide additional transport capacity. The relaxation of electric scooter requirements enables the Council to facilitate electric scooter hired from the authorised company known as SPIN to be use in road spaces which are authorised for use by pedal cycles and in some road spaces authorised for use by solo motor cycles, where those electric scooters are being used in accordance with the terms of an authorised electric scooter trial. Encouraging and facilitating alternative road space use will help mitigate against the severely reduced public transport capacity, further enabling and promoting necessary and safe social distancing.
Date of operation: The Order will come into operation on 12 February 2021 and is due to last for a maximum of 18 months.
