Starting today, Lime e-scooters will be available for booking directly in the Uber app. Alongside UberX, Uber Select and Green, the addition of Lime scooters means residents in Bucharest now have another opportunity to travel from A to B using Uber.
Riders using the Uber app will now see nearby Lime scooters on the home screen, after tap in the Rent button first, making it easier to choose a new mobility option.
The Lime E-scooters fleet will be available for Uber riders and will cost 3 RON to unlock, and 0.6 RON per minute to use afterwards. All scooters have a maximum speed of 20km/h. Before each ride, users are advised to wear a helmet and receive tips and tricks on how to move safely on the road.
“As Bucharest continues to gradually lift lockdowns, we believe micro mobility will play an important role in complementing and extending public transport networks. Micro mobility also serves as a great alternative to moving around safely with its ability to provide socially distanced commuting, at an affordable price,” Uber press release reads.
